BalanceBalancecellular function requires a fluid
medium with a carefully controlled composition
three types of homeostatic balance◦water balance
average daily water intake and loss are equal
◦electrolyte balance the amount of electrolytes absorbed by the
small intestine balance with the amount lost from the body, usually in urine
◦acid-base balance the body rids itself of acid (hydrogen ion – H+)
at a rate that balances metabolic production

BalanceBalancebalances maintained by the collective
action of the urinary, respiratory, digestive, integumentary, endocrine, nervous, cardiovascular, and lymphatic systems

Body WaterBody Waternewborn baby’s body weight is about
75% water
young men average 55% - 60%
women average slightly less
obese and elderly people as little as 45% by weight
total body water (TBW) of a 70kg (150 lb) young make is about 40 liters

Fluid CompartmentsFluid Compartmentsmajor fluid compartments of the body◦65% intracellular fluid (ICF)
◦35% extracellular fluid (ECF) 25% tissue (interstitial) fluid
8% blood plasma and lymphatic fluid
2% transcellular fluid ‘catch-all’ category cerebrospinal, synovial, peritoneal, pleural, pericardial fluids, vitreous and aqueous humors of the eye, bile, and fluids of the digestive, urinary, and reproductive tracts

Water Movement Between Water Movement Between Fluid CompartmentsFluid Compartmentsfluid continually exchanged between
compartmentswater moves by osmosisbecause water moves so easily through
plasma membranes, osmotic gradients never last for very long
if imbalance arises, osmosis restores balance within seconds so the intracellular and extracellular osmolarity are equal◦ if osmolarity of the tissue fluid rises, water moves
out of the cell
◦ if it falls, water moves in

Water Movement Between Water Movement Between Fluid CompartmentsFluid Compartmentsosmosis from one fluid compartment to
another is determined by the relative concentrations of solutes in each compartment◦ electrolytes – the most abundant solute
particles, by far◦ sodium salts in ECF◦ potassium salts in ICF
electrolytes play the principal role in governing the body’s water distribution and total water content

Water GainWater Gainfluid balance - when daily gains and
losses are equal (about 2,500 mL/day)
gains come from two sources:
◦preformed water (2,300 mL/day) ingested in food (700 mL/day) and drink
(1600 mL/day)
◦metabolic water (200 mL/day) by-product of aerobic metabolism and
dehydration synthesis C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O

Water LossWater Losssensible water loss is observable
◦1,500 mL/ day is in urine◦ 200 mL/day is in feces◦ 100 mL/day is sweat in resting adult
insensible water loss is unnoticed◦ 300 mL/day in expired breath◦ 400 mL/day is cutaneous
transpiration diffuses through epidermis and evaporates
does not come from sweat glands
◦loss varies greatly with environment and activity

The Importance of WaterThe Importance of Water
Body fluid maintenance
Thirst mechanism maintains volume
Kidney activity regulates volume and composition
Hormones regulate fluid volume and electrolytes
Buffers, respiration, and kidney function regulate pH
![Page 13: Fluid, Electrolyte & Acid-Base Balance](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022102622/56813050550346895d95fed0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Sense of ThirstSense of Thirst
Control center for thirst
Located in hypothalamus
Regulates total fluid volume
Excessive thirst -- polydipsia
![Page 14: Fluid, Electrolyte & Acid-Base Balance](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022102622/56813050550346895d95fed0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Regulation of Fluid IntakeRegulation of Fluid Intakethirst mainly governs fluid intakedehydration
◦reduces blood volume and blood pressure
◦increases blood osmolarityosmoreceptors in hypothalamus
◦respond to angiotensin II produced when BP drops and to rise in osmolarity of ECF with drop in blood volume
◦hypothalamus produces antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
![Page 15: Fluid, Electrolyte & Acid-Base Balance](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022102622/56813050550346895d95fed0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Regulation of Fluid IntakeRegulation of Fluid Intakecerebral cortex produces conscious
sense of thirst intense sense of thirst with 2-3% increase in
plasma osmolarity or10-15% blood loss
◦salivation is inhibited with thirst
![Page 16: Fluid, Electrolyte & Acid-Base Balance](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022102622/56813050550346895d95fed0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Thirst Satiation Thirst Satiation MechanismsMechanismslong term inhibition of thirst
◦absorption of water from small intestine reduces osmolarity of blood stops the osmoreceptor response, promotes capillary
filtration, and makes the saliva more abundant and watery changes require 30 minutes or longer to take effect
short term inhibition of thirst◦cooling and moistening of mouth quenches
thirst◦distension of stomach and small intestine◦30 to 45 min of satisfaction
must be followed by water being absorbed into the bloodstream or thirst returns
◦short term response designed to prevent overdrinking

Regulation of Water OutputRegulation of Water Outputonly way to control water output
significantly, is through variation in urine volume
◦kidneys can’t replace water or electrolytes
◦only slow rate of water and electrolyte loss until water and electrolytes can be ingested
![Page 19: Fluid, Electrolyte & Acid-Base Balance](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022102622/56813050550346895d95fed0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Regulation of Water OutputRegulation of Water Outputmechanisms:
◦ changes in urine volume linked to adjustments in Na+ reabsorption as Na+ is reabsorbed or excreted, water follows
◦ concentrate the urine through action of ADH ADH secretion stimulated by hypothalamic
osmoreceptors in response to dehydration aquaporins synthesized in response to ADH
membrane proteins in renal collecting ducts whose job is to channel water back into renal medulla, Na+ is still excreted
slows decrease in water volume and increased osmolarity – concentrates urine
◦ ADH release inhibited when blood volume and pressure is too high or blood osmolarity too low effective way to compensate for hypertension

Disorders of Water BalanceDisorders of Water Balance the body is in a state of fluid imbalance if there is an abnormality
of total volume, concentration, or distribution of fluid among the compartments
◦ fluid deficiency – fluid output exceeds intake over long period of time
volume depletion (hypovolemia) occurs when proportionate amounts of water and sodium are lost without
replacement total body water declines, but osmolarity remains normal hemorrhage, severe burns, chronic vomiting, or diarrhea
dehydration (negative water balance) body eliminates significantly more water than sodium total body water declines, osmolarity rises lack of drinking water, diabetes, ADH hyposecretion (diabetes insipidus),
profuse sweating, overuse of diuretics infants more vulnerable to dehydration than adults due to high metabolic
rate that demands high urine excretion, immature kidneys cannot concentrate urine effectively, greater ratio of body surface to mass
affects all fluid compartments (ICF, blood, and tissue fluid)◦ most serious effects:
circulatory shock due to loss of blood volume, neurological dysfunction due to dehydration of brain cells, infant mortality from diarrhea

Acid–Base BalanceAcid–Base BalancepH scale measures hydrogen ion
(H+) concentration
Body fluids have normal pH of 7.35 to 7.45
Three-tenths of a point shift in either direction is fatal
