What factors stimulate the thirst center in the hypothalamus? - answerIncreased blood
osmolarity(more solutes)

Decreased blood volume

Decreased blood pressure

Dry mouth



What does a decreased blood pressure stimulate in the kidneys? - answerStimulates the release of
renin, which increases angiotensin II formation, leading to increased thirst, increased water
intake, and increased blood volume, and increased blood pressure



What are the two main solutes in extracellular fluid and in urine? - answerNa+ and Cl-



ADH function - answerADH responds to increased osmolarity, by inserting aquaporins in late DCT
and collecting ducts, which increases the permeability to water and allows for more water to be
reabsorbed, decreasing blood osmolarity, increasing blood volume, increasing blood pressure



What are the two most important hormones in renal reabsorption and urine regulation? -
answerAldosterone and ANP



When is RAAS activated? - answerDecreased blood pressure or Na+ deficiency in plasma, this
causes an increase in renin release which activates the RAAS system. This increases Na+
reabsorption and water reabsorption in the late DCT and collecting ducts



Functions of ANP - answerANP responds to increased blood volume and increased stretch of atria
of the heart, promoting natriuresis (elevated excretion of Na+ into urine). Where sodium goes,
water follows, therefore there is also a loss of water, and a decrease in blood volume.



What are the most abundant cation and anion of ECF? - answerNa+ and Cl-



What are the most abundant cation and anion of the ICF? - answerK+, proteins, and phosphates
