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)
What mineral helps regulate extracellular volume?
Sodium helps regulate extracellular volume. Sodium such as in blood plasma and extracellular fluids in other tissues, bathe cells and carry out transport functions for nutrients and wastes.
Anticipated effect on blood pressure and the physiological basis of the response to high-salt diet?
Increased blood pressure. This is due to increased sodium in the blood, increasing the total extracellular fluid volume
Most important electrolyte for maintenance of osmotic pressure and volume?
The most abundant positive ion or cation in the extracellular fluid is sodium (Na+). Chloride (Cl-) is the most abundant negative ion or anion.
Examples of volume pressure relationship of gas?
In the relationship between volume and pressure when volume increases pressure decreases and when volume decreases pressure increases.
What happens to urinary output when you consume large amounts of salt water?
Urine production stays the same but the volume of extracellular fluid increases thus, the extracellular osmolarity decreases.
What does renin activate?
Renin mediates extracellular volume (i.e., that of the blood plasma, lymph and interstitial fluid), and arterial vasoconstriction. Thus, it regulates the body's mean arterial blood pressure. It activates the renin-angiotensin system by cleaving angiotensinogen, produced by the liver, to yield angiotensin I, which is further converted into angiotensin II by ACE. Angiotensin II then constricts blood vessels, increases the secretion of ADH and aldosterone, and stimulates the hypothalamus to activate the thirst reflex, each leading to an increase in blood pressure.
How does the volume and pressure change in a tire after a long drive?
The volume is constant. The pressure will increase.The volume is constant. The pressure will increase.
Which organ filters blood regulates blood volume and chemical makeup?
kidney
How the volume of a gas will change if the pressure on it is made less?
For a gas, pressure and volume are inversely related. If pressure decreases, volume will increase.
What are the four variables in the ideal gas law?
Pressure, volume, temperature & the amount of gas.
How does compression affect pressure?
Compression reduces the volume without changing the amount of content it has. Pressure is inversely affected by volume. When volume increases, pressure decreases. Likewise, when volume decreases, pressure increases.
