Introduction This week’s lab will examine the dynamics of fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance. Objectives Objectives for this week’s lab include: 1) Identify the body water content and fluid compartments, 2) Define the factors that influence water balance, 3) Compare and contrast electrolyte imbalances, 4) Describe how the body maintains an acid-base balance, and 5) Compare and contrast the acid-base imbalances. Overview A cell’s ability to function and live depends on not only ...

A cell’s ability to function and live depends on not only it’s ability to receive nutrients and dispose of wastes but also to maintain homeostasis of the surrounding fluids. The homeostasis and proper balance of water concentration, electrolytes, and pH regulation is dependent upon a number of mechanisms and organ systems. Failure on any level will lead to homeostatic imbalances that will cause dysfunction, cellular death and even organism death. Water occupies and is found in two regions...
