Question
Answer
How much of the total volume of body fluid is intracellular fluid   show
🗑
show interstitial fluid  
🗑
This occurs when water loss is greater than water gain   show
🗑
show antidiuretic hormone  
🗑
show dilute body fluids and a decrease in the osmolarity of interstitial fluids  
🗑
show carry electrical currents  
🗑
In extracellular fluid the most abundant cation is   show
🗑
show Cl-  
🗑
show K+  
🗑
The Na+ level in blood is controlled by   show
🗑
show chloride shift  
🗑
show Calcium  
🗑
PTH, calcitriol and calcitonin are   show
🗑
Buffer systems, exhaling carbon dioxide and excretion by the kidneys are all   show
🗑
show acidosis  
🗑
show blood pH to decrease  
🗑
show respiratory acidosis  
🗑
show vomiting  
🗑
show hyperventiliation  
🗑
The rate of fluid intake and outtake is how much higher in an infant than in an adult   show
🗑
show within cells  
🗑
Bone, DNA, RNA, ATP, and cell membranes all have one thing in common   show
🗑
show sodium  
🗑
show dissociate into anions and cations  
🗑
show water  
🗑
show extracellular fluid  
🗑
show partial pressure of CO2  
🗑
The oxygen atoms that we breath in are used immediately in aerobic respiration to make ATP and   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
The primary way to increase body water is to increase the formation of metabolic water   show
🗑
Most buffers consist of a mixture of weak acid that can donate H+ and the salt of that weak acid that can accept H+. Through this action pH change is resisted due to increases and decreases in H+ concentration   show
🗑
An increase in blood volume will stimulate thirst   show
🗑
Albumin is a protein "buffer" in blood plasma   show
🗑
Changes in osmolarity and osmosis are the primary cause of water movements between various fluid compartments in the body   show
🗑
show ADH, aldosterone, angiotensin II, atrial naturetic peptide  
🗑
show Respiratory alkalosis  
🗑
Can be caused by excessive vomiting of gastric contents, gastric suctioning, use of certain diuretics, severe dehydration or excessive intake of alkaline drugs   show
🗑
An abdominal increase in the volume of interstitial fluid   show
🗑
Can occur during renal failure or destruction of body cells that release phosphates into the blood   show
🗑
Can be caused by excessive water intake, excessive vomiting, or aldosterone deficiency   show
🗑
show Respiratory acidosis  
🗑
Can occur from hypoparathyroidism   show
🗑
Can be caused by decreases potassium intake or kidney disease; results in muscle fatigue, increased urine output, changes in electrocardiogram   show
🗑
show Hypovolemia  
🗑
show Hypernatremia  
🗑
Occurs when water loss is greater than water gain   show
🗑
The swelling of cells due to water moving from plasma into interstitial fluid and then into cells   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
