HCR 240 Exam 2 || Answers 100% Rated Correct.
Extracellular Fluid correct answers Found outside cells in the interstitial compartment, vascular
compartment, connective tissue and bones, transcellular fluid compartment. (rich in sodium,
chloride, bicarbonate)
Intracellular Fluid correct answers Found inside cells (rich in Potassium, magnesium,
phosphates, proteins
Fluid distribution (osmotic pressure & hydrostatic pressure) correct answers Movement of fluid
between vascular compartment and interstitial compartment is accomplished
Fluid distribution (osmotic pressure) correct answers Movement of fluid between the
intracellular and interstitial compartment is controlled
Fluid excretion correct answers Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), Aldosterone, Natriuretic factors
Antidiuertic hormone (ADH) correct answers causes kidneys to retain free water
Aldosterone correct answers adrenal cortex, causes kidneys to retain sodium and with that
sodium comes water and excrete potassium. Released when stress
Natriuretic factors correct answers Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP), Atrial Natrureic Factor
(ANF)
Brain Natriuretic Peptide correct answers released by the heart when heart gets stretched
Hyponatremia correct answers excessive amount of water in proportion to sodium concentration,
reduced osmolality
, Hypernatremia correct answers Serum sodium is greater than 145, too little water in proportion
to sodium
Electrolyte distribution correct answers Electrolytes are shifted from other areas to normalize
plasma levels
Electrolyte excretion correct answers Urine, feces, and sweat
Potassium correct answers Normal serum level 3.5-5.0
Hypokalemia correct answers decreased serum potassium level
Hyperkalemia correct answers Serum potassium levels are greater than 5.0
Calcium correct answers Normal total serum levels 9-11
Hypocalcemia correct answers decrease in ionized calcium
Hypercalcemia correct answers increase in ionized calcium
Magnesium correct answers Normal serum 1.5-2.5
Hypo correct answers decrease
Hyper correct answers increase
Phosphate correct answers Normal serum levels 2.5-4.5
