What else can I help you with?
List the fluid compartments that could be defined as extracellular?
Interstitial fluid, plasma, and transcellular fluid.
Fluid found OUtSiDE of a cell is called?
cytoplasm
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.
What are the two sources of extracellular fluid?
The two main sources of extracellular fluid are the interstitial fluid, which surrounds cells in tissues, and the blood plasma, which circulates within blood vessels. These two sources provide nutrients and oxygen to cells and help remove waste products from the body.
Why does lymph contain less protein than plasma?
Lymph contains less protein than plasma because lymph is formed from interstitial fluid that leaks from blood vessels into tissues. This leakage results in the loss of some proteins to the tissues. Therefore, once the interstitial fluid enters the lymphatic vessels, it has a lower protein concentration than plasma.
The total body water is divided into intracellular and extracellular fluids Plasma is considered?
Plasma is considered part of the extracellular fluid compartment, which also includes fluid within the interstitial spaces, lymph, and cerebrospinal fluid. Extracellular fluid is further classified into intravascular (plasma) and interstitial fluids.
List the fluid compartments that could be defined as extracellular?
Interstitial fluid, plasma, and transcellular fluid.
Fluid found OUtSiDE of a cell is called?

Is lymph more similar to blood plasma or to interstitial fluid?
Interstitial fluid comes from blood plasma which leaks out of the pores of capillaries. It differs in that the larger molecules mostly proteins and blood cells are too large to fit through the pores, and so the interstitial fluid lacks these. The interstitial fluid does contain the salts and the smaller molecules such as amino acids, sugars, fatty acids, coenzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters, which are present in blood plasma.
Is the cytoplasm the same as plasma membrane?
OH NO, they are totaly different. Cytoplasm is on the inside of the cell, plasma membrane is on the outside.
What is the difference between blood plasma and interstitial fluid in terms of composition?
The primary differences between plasma and interstitial fluid involve (1) the concentrations of dissolved proteins,because plasma proteins cannot cross capillary walls, and (2) the levels of respiratory gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide), due to the respiratory activities of tissue cells.
What are the types of fluids?
Plasma, Lymph, interstitial Fluid and cerebrospinal fluid.
What is the plasma outside the outside the capillaries?
Plasma outside of capillaries is no longer called plasma, its name changes to interstitial fluid.
Is a plasma membrane and cytoplasm found in every living cell?
Yes, both cytoplasm and plasma membrane is present in every living cell.
What does the actual cytoplasm in a cell do?
Cytoplasm is the area within the cell inside the plasma membrane. all cells have a cytoplasm.
Does a white blod cell have plasma?
Yes, it has all the organelles including plasma. Plasma is another word for cytoplasm.
What surrounds the organelles in the plasma membrane?
The cytoplasm surrounds the organelles in the plasma membrane. The cytoplasm is a gel-like substance composed of water, enzymes, salts, and various organic molecules. It fills the space inside the cell and provides a medium for chemical reactions to occur.
