What are the 3 types of extracellular fluid?
|
Interstitial
Intervascular transcellular |
|
what endocrine organ controls the thirst mechanism?
|
hypothalamus
|
|

|
controls the amt of fluid leaving the body in the urine
|
|

|
determines the reabsorption of both Na+ ions and H2O from the kidney tubules.
|
|
What is hydrostatic pressure?
|
The pressure which is exerted on a portion of a column of H2O as a result of the weight of the fluid abot it.
|
|
The process whereby fluids pass through a filter or a filtering medium. The act of changing a fluid by passing it through a filter.
|
Filtration
|
|
the movement of particles from and are of high concentration to and area of low concentration.
|
Diffusion
|
|
The movement of H2O through a semi-permeable membrane.
|
Osmosis
|
|
When a cell expends energy to move molecules or ions aross a membrane.
|
Active Transport
|
|
When there is an equal amt of sol'n inside and outisde the cell, so the cell has reached equilibrium.
|
Isotonic
|
|
When there will be a greater amt outside the cells than inside, the cell equilibrium will move in balance, which will make the cell swell.
|
Hypotonic
|
|
There is more sol'n inside the cell than outside, which means the sol'n will move out, making the cell shrivel up.
|
Hypertonic
|

What are the 4 general causes of edema and a disease that represents each?
|
1. Inceased capillary hydrostatic pressure, forcing excessive amts of fluid out and prevents return of the interstitial compartment
EX: Pulmonary edema 2. Loss of plasma protiens, reducing plasma osmotic pressure. EX: Kidney disease 3. Obstruction of lymphatic circulation, restrictingthe return of excess fluid and protien to the gen. circulation. EX: Damage to Lymphnodes 4.

|
|
