Body fluid compartment and water balance
The human body fluids are divided two major fluid compartments. Fluid compartments are mainly used to compare the situation. It is the intracellular and extracellular fluid. These two fluid compartments are account for total body water. The two main parts of the body fluids are watered and make up the body's tissues. Fluid compartments are a location relative to the membrane of the cells. The intracellular fluid system includes all fluids in cells plasma membrane. The intracellular fluid compartment is a system that contains all cellular fluids with the plasma membrane. They are separated by the cell membranes. The extracellular fluid has surrounded all of the body cells. They have two primary constituents …show more content…
They possess energy and moving around randomly and bouncing off each other. If molecular into container. The container with the molecules within the container are more stable. It is more energetically beneficial for the molecules to be spread out rather than to be closely compacted in one corner. The ability of these molecules to move from a high concentration to a low concentration and spread out. So it is mean any particle going from the higher concentration and the lower concentration. There are four factors which affect …show more content…
The molecules move from areas of a high to a low concentration. But through will move across a partially permeable membrane (semipermeable membrane).The membrane can only allow some of the molecules to transfer across. The partially permeable membrane has openings small enough for water molecules to pass. So it is mean solute cannot through the membrane. There are three classifications of osmosis. Three classifications are isotonic, hypertonic and hypotonic.
 Isotonic ( iso = same, tonic = strength )
Equal concentration of solute on the outside and inside. The molecule going from the outside to the inside or from the inside to the outside. So they are not going have any net inflow or net outflow. So both inside and outside is the same concentration in the solution.
 Hypertonic ( hyper = more, tonic = strength )
- Hypertonic solution are going to pull fluid from inside of the cell out.
- Lower concentration of water in cell
- Higher concentration of solute in cell
It has more solute on the outside. The water will want to rush out. Because there is more solute on the outside. After water rush, the cells are going to shrink.
 Hypotonic ( hypo = low, tonic = strength
