What are the solutes that maintain balance between intracellular and extracellular fluid?
sodium, chloride, & potassium
What is the Most abundant positive electrolyte in extracellular fluid?
Sodium ion is the most concentrated ion in the extracellular fluid.
What is chief intracellular cation?
The chief intracellular cation in the human body is the potassium ion. On the other hand, the primary extracellular cation is the sodium ion. In is the actions of these ions that allow neurons to transmit electrical impulses.
Is potassium found in normal cerebrospinal fluid?
yes
A compartment within the body?
intracellular fluid compartment and extracellular fluid compartment
The mineral that is found primarily in the intracellular fluid compartment is?
potassium.
What is the major cation in the intracellular fluid?
potassium
Is The most abundant cation in intracellular fluid is potassium?
No, it is potassium.
What are the solutes that maintain balance between intracellular and extracellular fluid?
sodium, chloride, & potassium
Does lymph includes extracellular fluid or intracellular fluid?
intracellular fluid
What is the major ingredient of fluid inside of cells?
Water (H2O) Salt (NaOH & KOH). Note, in mammalian cells, the intracellular and extracellular potassium and sodium levels are different. Potassium - Intracellular 139 millimolar, extracellular 4 millimolar Sodium - Intracellular 12 millimolar, extracellular 145 millimolar
What is the Most abundant positive electrolyte in extracellular fluid?
Sodium ion is the most concentrated ion in the extracellular fluid.
What is chief intracellular cation?
The chief intracellular cation in the human body is the potassium ion. On the other hand, the primary extracellular cation is the sodium ion. In is the actions of these ions that allow neurons to transmit electrical impulses.
What is the major ingredient of the fluid inside cells?
Water (H2O) Salt (NaOH & KOH). Note, in mammalian cells, the intracellular and extracellular potassium and sodium levels are different. Potassium - Intracellular 139 millimolar, extracellular 4 millimolar Sodium - Intracellular 12 millimolar, extracellular 145 millimolar
Difference between intracellular fluid and extracellular fluid?
Cytoplasm is the inner part of the cell or its the contents of the cell, which is surrounded by plasma membrane. While extracellular fluid is the fluid located outside of the cells and divided into 1.plasma in the blood vessel. 2.interstitial fluid between the cells.
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.
What is the main intracellular ion?
Potassium (K+)
