| Water accounts for what percentage of total body weight? | 60% |
| Body water has two components? | Water inside cells (intracellular fluid) Water outside cells (extracellular fluid) |
| Intracellular fluid makes up ... of total body water. Extracellular fluid makes up...of total body water. | 2/3 1/3 |
| ECF is subdivided into which two compartments and what percentages make up these compartments? | Interstitial fluid (80%) Plasma (20%) |
| If too much fluid moves out of the plasma and into the interstitial spaces, this results in? | Tissue swelling (Oedema) |
| The protein content of the plasma is much higher than in the interstitial fluid? | Yes |
| Plasma proteins contribute towards the osmotic pressure of the plasma. This is called the | Colloid Osmotic Pressure |
| Plasma proteins help to ? | retain water in the plasma. |
| What can result if plasma protein levels fall? | Severe starvation. |
