Describe the location and functions of body fluids, their distribution, including the factors that affect variations in fluid compartments. Location Function Distribution Interstitial fluid Fluid that surrounds tissue cells and lymph Helps bring oxygen and nutrients to cells and remove waste products Intravascular fluid (plasma) Found within the vascular system Liquid component of blood Transcellular Cerebrospinal, pericardial, synovial, intraocular, pleural fields Lubricates parietal and visceral surfaces to decrease friction 16. (Fat/muscle) holds more fluid. muscle
