What would happen to a patient hospitalized for cadiac problems who was mistakenly infused with potassium-enhanced intravenous solution meant for another patient?
Usually nothing bad would happen. Most people can regulate potassium well enough to take a large load of extra potassium without ill effect. If the person had kidney problems or for some other problems regulating potassium it could lead to high levels which can cause abnormal heart rhythms and even (rarely) death.
Why do some athletes take bananas before their race?
Because they're high in potassium and energy.
Why take potassium?

What happens if you don't take medication for low potassium?

What happens when potassium is too high?
The first question would be to ask why the potassium is elevated. do you take a potassium supplement? Do you have trouble with your kidneys? What does your doctor say? There are drugs that will decrease potassium but they must be administered and monitored under the care of a physician.
How long does honey take to evaporate?
The evaporation rate of honey can vary depending on factors like temperature, humidity, and surface area. In general, honey evaporates slowly due to its high viscosity and low water content. It can take several days to weeks for a small amount of honey to fully evaporate.
The cytoplasm of a certain cell such as a neuron which already has a high concentration of k plus ions can continue to take k plus ions up into the cell this is the result of?
This process is a result of active transport, specifically the action of the sodium-potassium pump. The sodium-potassium pump actively transports potassium ions into the cell against their concentration gradient, utilizing ATP for energy. This maintains the high concentration of potassium ions inside the cell.
Do bananas contain radioactive potassium?
Bananas are relatively high in potassium, but you need 4,700 mg of potassium per day and you'd have to eat about 11 bananas every day to get that. Potatoes are higher, at about 950 mg if you eat the skin as well. This all gets a lot harder if you're on a low/no carb diet. Eat Leafy green vegetables, red meat. Use No Salt (half salt/half potassium) and take a supplement. Very few humans can get all of what they need just from food every day.
Is honey a solid?
No. Runny honey will take the shape of the container that it is put in whereas solid honey may take longer but will still take the shape of its container eventually
Who is at high risk of potassium deficiency?
If you experience excessive fluid loss, through vomiting, diarrhea, or sweating, or if you take certain medications, you may be at risk for potassium deficiency. In addition, a diet that is high in sodium and low in potassium can negatively affect potassium status. The Standard American Diet (SAD), which is high in sodium-containing processed foods and low in fruits and vegetables, contains about two times more sodium than potassium. Many health experts recommend taking in at least five times more potassium than sodium. The symptoms of potassium deficiency include muscle weakness, confusion, irritability, fatigue, and heart disturbances. Athletes with low potassium stores may tire more easily during exercise, as potassium deficiency causes a decrease in glycogen (the fuel used by exercising muscles) storage.
Can you liquefy salt?
Yes potassium liquifies salt. Take an avocado for instance very high potassium levels. (Much more than a bannana) and sprinkle some salt on some cut Leicester and wait. You will see it turn into liquid droplets.
