Extracellular fluid is mainly consists of water with sodium chloride. It's about 154 miliosmoles per liter. There is calcium ion as well in much lesser concentration. The potassium is also there. It is 4.5 milliosmoles. There is little proteins, glucose, amino acids, fatty acids, oxygen and carbon bi oxide, vitamins and other minerals in very minute quantity.

Why and how does the ECF differ from the ICF?
The acronym ECF stands for extracellular fluid. Extracellular fluid is the fluid outside of the cell in the human body.
Is urine from a catheter a intracellular or extracellular fluid?
Extracellular.
What does the extracellular matrix of connective tissue consist of?
Collagen is the connective tissue.
What are some uses for extracellular fluid?
Extracellular fluid is the body fluid outside the cell that is composed of blood plasma, interstitial fluid, lymph and transcellular fluid. It resides outside the cells and transports mmaterials to and from the cells
What is the extracellular fluid in most tissues is called?
interstitial fluid

What is found in extracellular fluid?
The principal elements in the extracellular fluid are sodium, potassium and calcium.

Extracellular.
Where is the extracellular fluid found in the body?
Extracellular is outside cells and intracellular is inside, so that extracellular fluid would not be inside cells.
Fluid found OUtSiDE of a cell is called?

What is extracellular fluid AND where is it found?
Extracellular fluid is the fluid outside of cells. It is in the interstitial space, in the blood vessels and lymph vessels

Is blood plasma extracellular or intracellular?
It is the intravascular fluid part of extracellular fluid (all body fluid outside of cells)

What separates the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments?
The barrier that separates the interstitial fluid from the intracellular fluid is the plasma membrane. The interstitial fluid is a major component of the extracellular fluid.
