Learning Objectives: Body Fluid Homeostasis
1. Define homeostasis and the principles of positive and
negative feedback in physiological systems, and identify
select components involved in maintaining water balance.
2. Identify the 3 major body water compartments, their
composition and relative volumes.
3. Identify the physiological range for plasma pH, osmolarity,
calcium ion, sodium ion and potassium ion concentration.
4. Contrast the intracellular and extracellular concentrations
of sodium, potassium, chloride and calcium ions.
5. Define and correctly use the terms concentration, gradient,
diffusion, osmolality, osmosis, osmotic pressure,
semipermeable, tonicity.
6. Differentiate between osmotic pressure and tonicity and
identify what happens to a cell placed in a hypotonic
solution and a hypertonic solution.
7. Determine the osmolality of a solution and explain the role
of the reflection coefficient in determining effective
osmotic pressure.
Learning Objectives: Body Fluid Homeostasis
8. Use the simplified clinical equations to estimate
plasma osmolality and plasma tonicity from
patient clinical laboratory data.
9. Describe how cells respond to changes in cell
volume caused by altered extracellular fluid
tonicity.
10.Predict the effect of the intravenous infusion of
solutions of various osmolality and tonicity on
the body fluid compartments.
11.Describe the role of plasma proteins in retaining
water in the plasma fluid compartment, and how
hypoalbuminemia can result in edema.
Water
• Water is the medium within which
most of the molecules of life are
suspended or dissolved
• Water is a polar molecule with a
partial positive and a partial
negative side
• Water can form hydrogen bonds
with itself and other polar
molecules

Blood plasma levels
Albumin: 3.5 - 5 g/dL
Calcium: 8.5 - 10.5 mg/dL
Glucose: 70 – 99 mg/dL
Potassium: 3.5 - 5 mEq/L (mM)
Sodium: 135 - 145 mEq/L (mM)
Chloride: 96 - 107 mEq/L (mM)
pH = 7.35 - 7.45
Protein Structure Determines Function
• The DNA sequence carries the information
for the structure and function of the body
• DNA→RNA→Protein→Structure = Function
• The amino acid sequence (primary
structure) of a protein determines the
secondary, tertiary and quaternary
structure of the protein and the proper
protein structure is required for the
protein to function
• Proteins will not function properly if pH,
ions, and temperature are not maintained
within the proper physiological range

• pH = - log10 [H+] = log10 (1/[H+])
• Physiological pH = 7.35 - 7.45
• Acidemia = high [H+]; pH < 7.35
• Alkalemia = low [H+]; pH > 7.45
• Hypernatremia = high [Na+] >145
• Hyponatremia = low [Na+] <135
• Hyperkalemia = high [K+] >5.5
• Hypokalemia = low [K+] <3.5 mM/L

Regulation of the Intracellular
Fluid Composition
• The intracellular fluid composition
is determined by the membrane
permeability and the activity of the
cells membrane proteins
– ATPase pumps
– Channels
– Receptors
– Transporters
• The activity of these membrane
proteins is usually highly regulated

Revised 7/19/19
Which is closest to the
osmolality of blood?
A. 100 mOsmol/kg
B. 200 mOsmol/kg
C. 300 mOsmol/kg
D. 400 mOsmol/kg
Osmolarity and Osmolality
• Osmolarity is the number of osmoles per liter of
solution (eg, plasma)
• Osmolality is the number of osmoles per kilogram
of solvent
• Osmolarity is affected by the volume of the various
solutes in the solution and the temperature, while
the osmolality is not, therefore osmolality is
preferred for biological solutions
• Osmolarity
– 1 mole/liter (M/L) = 1 osmole/L (Osmol/L)
– 1 millimole/liter (mM/L) = 1 mOsmol/L
– mOsm/L = mmol/L × number of particles/mole
• Osmolality
– 1 mole/kg H2O = 1 osmole/kg H2O (Osmol/kg H2O)
– 1 millimole/kg H2O = 1 mOsmol/kg H2O
The movement of water across cell membranes
occurs by the process of osmosis
Compartment A contains an impermeable At equilibrium,
solute, therefore the water concentration in A is the hydrostatic
less than B, and water moves from B to A down pressure exerted
its concentration gradient to dilute the solute by the column of
water (h) stops
