1
Q

how much urine does a person excrete a day

A

1400ml

2
Q

what makes up the ECF

A

interstitial fluid and blood plasma

3
Q

what body fluid compartment has the largest volume

A

intracellular

4
Q

transcellular fluid makes up about ___ liters

A

1-2

5
Q

which cation/anion in ECF

A

Na and Cl. ca hCO3

6
Q

which cation/anion in ICF

A

k Mg, PO4 and organic anions, proteins

7
Q

____ follows ____

A

water follows salt

8
Q

total body water is ___ of body weight

A

60

9
Q

osmosis is diffusion from ___ to ___

A

high to low

10
Q

isotonic added to ECF

A

no change in osmolarity, increase ECF volume

11
Q

hypotonic added to ECF

A

ECF osmo decreases. water moves into cells. icf (more) and ecf volume both up.

12
Q

hypertonic added to ECF

A

ECF osmo increases. water moves from cells to ECF. increase in ECF volume, decrease in ICF volume, rise osmo both.

13
Q

primary loss of water from ECF results in

A

hyponatremia and dehydration, associated with decreased ECF

14
Q

hyponatremia = ____na and ___h20

A

dec Na, excess H20

15
Q

hyponatremia conditions

A

diarrhea, vomiting, diuretic abuse, addisons (dec aldosterone), excess water retention (ADH)

16
Q

addisons =

A

decreased aldosterone

17
Q

hyponatremia = ___ ADH and ___ aldosterone

A

increased ADH and decreased aldosterone

18
Q

hypernatremia = ___ ADH and ___ aldosterone

A

decreased ADH and increased aldosterone

19
Q

hypernatremia conditions

A

lack of ADH, DI, dehydration, aldosterone secretion

20
Q

nephrogenic DI

A

kidneys cant respond to ADH

21
Q

central DI

A

lack of ADH - kidneys excrete large amt of dilute urine causing dehydration and excess NaCl in ECF

22
Q

hypernatremia promotes

A

ADH, which makes you hang on to more water!
