6.COMPOSITION OF DIFFERENT FLUID COMPARTMENT
7. PREVIOUS YEAR QUESTIONS
3. 6.COMPOSITION OF DIFFERENT FLUID COMPARTMENT
1. ECF 2. ICF
Predominant ECF
Sodium content in body
Predominant ICF
Potassium content of body
4. Quick digest:
• The dissimilarity between the anions in the ICF and the ECF is largely determined by the presence of
intracellular molecules that do not cross the cell membrane.
• Ca++ ion concentration is least in ICF
• The difference in the distribution of cations (sodium and potassium) is a result of the activity of the Na+ – K+
- ATPase pump.
• It is important to note that:
• Only the exchangeable solutes are osmotically active.
• Exchangeable pool.
• Non-exchangeable.
