Document Summary

Intracellular - primary one to contribute to + charges! Rapidly & almost completely absorbed via passive diffusion! Aldosterone increases renal excretion --> renal control of k is less efficient than na. Functions: growth of body tissue, osmotic pressure to maintain intracellular fluid compartment (ifc, acid/base balance, cofactor. 90% of total body k is within cells. Reactions with energy release, glycogen synthesis, protein synthesis. Baked potato, prunes, raisins, banana, lima beans, artichoke. Impaired absorption & loss of gi fluids! Muscular contraction --> impaired conduction of electrical impulses. Too much acid in blood --> seen in diabetes. Things leak out, therefore electrolytes are lost. Extracellular digestion & absorption dietary and secreted cl are completely absorbed excretion - main route. For breathing (to get rid of co2) Exchange anion (cl-) in rbc for hco3. Gi secretions (hcl) - steps to make: na+/k+/cl- transport into cell, cl- exits cell, driving force = na+/k+ atpase pump tissues & systems affected.
