Osmotic and Ionic Regulation
All animals face osmotic and ionic stresses.
Stresses depend on environment:• Aquatic
• Marine• Freshwater• Brackish (estuarine)
• Terrestrial

Regardless of their environment,all animals must be capable of
maintaining isosmoticity betweenthe ICF (intracellular fluid) and
ECF (extracellular fluid).
Regulating ICF osmotic conc. in responseto changes in the osmotic conc. of the ECF
is called:
Cell Volume Regulation

Unchecked swelling under hypotonicconditions can lead to
OSMOTIC LYSIS

If the osmotic conc. of the ECF decreases,water moves into the ICF and the cell swells.

If the osmotic conc. of the ECF increases,water moves out of the ICF and the cell shrinks.

Animals can reduce the amountof volume regulation their cells
must do by regulating ECF osmoticconcentrations.
Osmotic and ionic regulation occursin both aquatic and terrestrial spp.
We’ll look at aquatic organisms first
