Potassium is the major intracellular ion, not sodium as was previously answered. Sodium is the major extracellular ion (along with chloride, and smaller amounts of potassium and bicarbonate)
Osmotic pressure is the main force that drives fluid movement from intracellular to extracellular spaces. It is influenced by the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell. Additionally, hydrostatic pressure gradients across cell membranes can also contribute to fluid movement between intracellular and extracellular compartments.
Albumin is the main constituent in plasma that contributes to osmotic pressure. It helps maintain the balance of fluids between the blood and tissues by exerting osmotic pressure to keep fluid within the blood vessels.
No, increasing osmotic pressure within a joint is not a function of synovial fluid. Osmotic pressure is the force that drives the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane, and it is determined by solute concentration. The synovial fluid's main function is to lubricate and nourish the joint, not to influence osmotic pressure.
The main proteins in blood are albumin, globulins, and fibrinogen. Albumin helps maintain osmotic pressure and transports substances in the blood. Globulins include antibodies and transport proteins. Fibrinogen is involved in blood clotting.

Life has been originated in the sea. So probably you have carried the sea water with you as a extracellular fluid. Main function of the sodium is to maintain the osmotic counter balance to the osmotic pressure of the potassium from the intracellular fluid.

The cell wall. The interior pressure of water maintains turgor and keeps the plant erect.
In the process of intracellular digestion, lysosomes are the main organelles. Lysosomes contain enzymes that are made by cells, and their primary function is to digest things.

The net inward pressure in venular capillary ends is less than the net outward pressure in arteriolar ends of capillaries because of two main factors: the hydrostatic pressure and the osmotic pressure. In venular capillary ends, the hydrostatic pressure is reduced due to the resistance of the venous system, while the osmotic pressure remains constant. In arteriolar ends, the hydrostatic pressure is higher due to the force exerted by the heart and the osmotic pressure remains the same. As a result, more fluid is filtered out of the capillaries at the arteriolar ends than is reabsorbed at the venular ends.

The main intracellular ion is potassium (K+). It plays a crucial role in many cellular processes including maintaining membrane potential, regulating cell volume, and influencing muscle contractions.
