Fluids Electrolytes And Acid Base Balance. Fluid occupies almost 60 of the weight of an adult. In the icf potassium is the dominant cation. Identify the body s main fluid compartments. Introduction to fluid electrolyte and acid base balance.
Phosphate sulfate anions. Medium of metabolic reaction with cells. Prelude to fluid electrolyte and acid base balance water is the most ubiquitous substance in the chemical reactions of life. This chapter provides an overview of fluids electrolytes and acid base balance. Body fluid is located in two fluid compartments. Bases are electrolytes are release hydroxide ions oh when they are dissolved in water.
Fluids electrolytes and acid base balance.
Bases are electrolytes are release hydroxide ions oh when they are dissolved in water. Identify the body s main fluid compartments. Acid base balance is primarily regulated by the concentration of h or the ph level in body fluids especially ecf. Magnesium and sodium ions also contribute to a lesser extent to the cationic component of the icf. Medium of metabolic reaction with cells. Many diseases and their treatments can affect fluid and electrolyte balance.
