There are numerous biochemical compounds that control the flow of intracellular and extracellular fluid. The most prevalent and probably most basic, however, are called Phospholipids. These phospholipids are phosphate backbones with fatty acid chains that arrange themselves two layers. Their phosphate backbones are attracted to polar molecules like water, and there fatty acid chains are attracted to non-polar molecules like lipids.

The cell wall is composed of a "lipid-bilayer" in which to layers of these phospholipids arrange themselves so that their non polar ends meet in the middle, with one polar end in the extracellular space, and one polar end in the intracellular space.

Yes, there is fluid pressure in the skeleton. However, fluid pressure is only in the exoskeleton, not the internal skeleton.


What is the fluid link between the external and internal environment?

The fluid link between the external and internal environment is the plasma membrane of cells. It acts as a selectively permeable barrier that regulates the passage of substances in and out of the cell, maintaining the cell's internal environment while interacting with the external environment.

Are the same chemicals used to decaffinate coffee as in embalming fluid?

No, the chemicals used to decaffeinate coffee are different from those used in embalming fluid. Coffee is typically decaffeinated using chemicals like methylene chloride or ethyl acetate, while embalming fluid typically contains formaldehyde, methanol, and other preservatives to prevent decomposition in the deceased.
