Q

main electrolyte for ECF

22
Q

osmolarity means

A

number of particles in solution

23
Q

what happens when more electrolytes in ICF than ECF

A

cellular edema (water goes from ecf -> icf)
adrenal glands -> aldosterone -> absorbs Na -> water ICF to ECF -> relieve edema

24
Q

area at base of brain that regulates appetite and thirst

25
what happens when more electrolytes in ECF than ICF (vascular osmotic pressure)
water goes from ICF -> ECF hypothalamus stimulates the pituitary gland to secrete ADH to pee less

28
factors to increase water requirement
youth, fever, diarrhea, perspiration, hyperthyroidism
