Concentration of water in body composition is _____ %
60
TBW(total body weight) of the below is
Fetus :
Adult male :
Adult female :
Infant(newborn)
97%
60%(54 - 70)
50%(45 - 60)
75%(65 - 80)
What is the tbw of my father if the estimated weight is 106kg ?
Tbw = w * 60%(for adult male)
106 × 60/100 = 63.6 lit
Why females have less tbw in comparison with males ?
Because females have more fats than males have , and fats and h2o does not mix .
Males have more proteins ( which make up muscles) which cotain more h2o.

This explains why a man’s body is larger than a woman’s.
What facilities the continuous exchange between plasma and ISF ?
+++ permeability
# large total surface area of capillaries
What explains the sever and Rapid dehydration of children
Absolute volume of ECF in infant <adult
The exchange between plasma and ISF (interstitial fluid) and the exchange between lSF and ICF is called
Dynamic equilibrium
Where does the exchange between plasma and lSF occure
Capillaries
For a male with 60% of his body is water
2/3 (40%) body H2O is _____ fluid
1/3 body(20%) H2O is ______ fluid
Intracellular fluid
Extracellular fluid
ECF distribute into
1/ plasma 5% or from 3 to 3.5 L
2/ lSF 15% or from 10 to 10.5
What is the average of ICF in a 70kg male
70 × 40%= 28
Average ECF in a 70 kg male
70 × 20%= 14 liter
Plasma consists of ___ % of Body weight
5
Where does the exchange between plasma and lSF occure
Capillaries
Stable dynamic equilibrium exist between all compartment because
Water is constantly and rapidly
passing between all compartments
exchange through capillaries and cellular membranes
How edema pitting occur ?
Increase blood pressure –>
” hydrostatic “ –>
“ water shift from plasma to lCF –>
Causing edema pitting
What is pulmonary edema ? And what are the symptoms
Excess fluid in air saces of lung
Difficulty in breathing and may experience chest pain
Why edema could be a life treating?
Interning of fluid in air saces or alveoli cause difficulty in gas exchange in lungs
Why could pulmonary edema be a life treating?
Excess fluid in air sacs or alveoli causes difficulty in gas exchange in the lungs

It compromises(اي تضيق مساحة تبادل الغازات ) gas exchange in lung
Give to e.g of movement of water between the different compartments
Edema
Sweating
The main cation of ECF is
يقصد بكلمة cation العنصر الموجب الذي ينجذب إلى cathode
Na+
ECF contain large quantities of anion, name it
Cl -
مساعدة من د.محمد
كلمة anion تعني ايون سالب الشحنة
The main lCF cation is
K+ potassium
له اسم آخر kalium
