What is the extracellular fluid in most tissues is called?
interstitial fluid
What is similar to the cerebospinal fluid?
Something called interstitial fluid. This found between cells and tissues.
What are interstitial compartments?
Space that surround the cells of a given tissue
What causes interstitial tissue fluid?
Interstitial fluid (or tissue fluid) is a solution that surrounds the cells of animals. It is the main component of the extracellular fluid, it includes plasma and transcellular fluid. The interstitial fluid is found in the interstitial spaces, also known as the tissue spaces.
If there is a total of one liter of nitrogen gas dissolved in the body tissues at sea level how much would be dissolved in a diver breathing air at 99 feet below the sea after the tissues has equilib?
The tissues do not "equilib." Your body builds up more and more nitrogen until there is so much built up that you get Nitrogen Narcosis, and as you ascend you can (and if at depth way too long, will) have nitrogen bubbles form in your bloodstream. Also known as "The Bends" That answer is not correct. Tissues do come into an equilibrium state known as saturation (just ask a saturation diver that does not incur longer decompression after being "saturated"). After a certain period of time (the exact time is up for debate), the body has absorbed (or released) all the inert gas (i.e. nitrogen) it can at that steady state depth. The answer to the question can be kept simple with an answer of 4 liters (due to being at 4 times greater pressure than the surface pressure), or complicated by taking into consideration the concepts such as partial pressure vacancy (a.k.a. inherent unsaturation or oxygen window) as well as other gasses not having a linear affect depending on the depth - which would then affect the nitrogen partial pressure or potential uptake. The answer was also not correct as to how nitrogen narcosis works as that is based on actual partial pressure and is not dependent on time.
What is the meaning of interstitial?
Of or pertaining to interstices; intermediate; within the tissues; as, interstitial cavities or spaces in the tissues of animals or plants.
Does partial pressure of oxygen increase during exercise?
You can consume up to ten times as much oxygen in exercise as at rest, and produce the same increase in CO2.
What does the medical term interstitial mean?
The term "interstitial" refers to the space between tissues or cells in the body. In medicine, interstitial can describe conditions or diseases that affect or occur in these spaces, such as interstitial lung disease or interstitial cystitis.
What is the extracellular fluid in most tissues is called?
interstitial fluid
what is The fluid that bathes the cells found in tissues?
interstitial fluid
What is the excess interstitial fluid drains from body tissues?
Lymph.
What is the name of the extracellular fluid in most tissues?
interstitial fluid Dr. Claire DNA Diva
Does ldl's transport cholesterol from the peripheral tissues to the liver?
no
What helps determine the capillary density in a given tissue?
Capillary density within tissues varies directly with tissues' rates and metabolism.
What conditions does gas exchange occur?
When the partial pressure between the alveoli and the blood, or between the blood and the tissues, is different - i.e. when a concentration gradient exists.
What is the vessel with valves that carry blood from the peripheral tissues to the heart?
Veins carry blood from the tissues to the heart.
What is similar to the cerebospinal fluid?
Something called interstitial fluid. This found between cells and tissues.
