What else can I help you with?
What is the major anion in the extracellular fluids of the body?
Major Intracellular cation - K+ (Potassium) Major Extracellular cation - Na+ (Sodium) Major Intracellular anion - PO4+ (Phosphate) Major Extracellular anion - Cl- (Chloride)
Extracellular fluid is found everywhere in the body EXCEPT?
Extracellular is outside cells and intracellular is inside, so that extracellular fluid would not be inside cells.
Extracellular fluid would not include?
Cells and intracellular components are not part of the extracellular fluid, as it is found outside of cells within the body. Intracellular fluid would not be considered part of the extracellular fluid.
Identify the three major subdivision of extracellular fluid found in the body?
The three major subdivisions of extracellular fluid in the body are interstitial fluid, plasma, and transcellular fluid. Interstitial fluid surrounds cells, plasma is the fluid component of blood, and transcellular fluid is found in cavities such as cerebrospinal, synovial, and peritoneal fluids.
Cells in the body have a fluid surrounding them What is the name of this fluid?
Interstitial fluid also called extracellular fluid.
What is the major extracellular cation?
Sodium (Na+) is the major extracellular cation in the body, playing a significant role in maintaining fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle contractions.
What is the principal cation of the ECF?
The principal cation of the extracellular fluid (ECF) is sodium (Na+). Sodium plays a critical role in maintaining fluid balance, nerve function, and muscle contraction in the body.
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.
Is blood plasma extracellular or intracellular?
It is the intravascular fluid part of extracellular fluid (all body fluid outside of cells)
What is the major anion in the extracellular fluids of the body?
Major Intracellular cation - K+ (Potassium) Major Extracellular cation - Na+ (Sodium) Major Intracellular anion - PO4+ (Phosphate) Major Extracellular anion - Cl- (Chloride)
Extracellular fluid is found everywhere in the body EXCEPT?
Extracellular is outside cells and intracellular is inside, so that extracellular fluid would not be inside cells.
Is urine from a catheter a intracellular or extracellular fluid?
Urine from a catheter is considered an extracellular fluid because it is produced and stored outside the cells of the body.
Extracellular fluid would not include?
Cells and intracellular components are not part of the extracellular fluid, as it is found outside of cells within the body. Intracellular fluid would not be considered part of the extracellular fluid.

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
Fluids located outside a cell?
Extracellular fluid is fluid located outside a cell. The average person has about 19 liters of extracellular fluid in his body.
Which main nutrient is present in salt?
Salt = NaCl; therefore, if I understand the question correctly, we are really looking at what functions sodium and chloride serve in the body, after the salt is broken down. Na, Cl, and K are components of bodily fluids, and influence water balance in the body. Sodium: -Primary extracellular cation -Regulates size of extracellular fluid compartment as well as plasma volume Chloride: -Primary extracellular anion -Part of HCl in stomach NaCl helps support: -gonadal activity -adrenal function -adequate blood volume and pressure -(and others)
