Document Summary

Chapter 20: integrative phys ii fluid and. Water and ions can be excreted via the kidneys, feces, sweat, and lungs. Water and sodium are associated with extracellular fluid volume and osmolarity. Changes in cell volume can initiate certain cellular responses: swelling liver cells activates protein and glycogen synthesis and shrinking causes the breakdown. Behavioural pathway: low blood pressure (volume receptors in atria and carotid and aortic baroreceptors) elicits thirst causing water uptake ecf and icf volume increases. Cardiovascular system: low blood pressure (volume receptors in atria and carotid and aortic baroreceptors) cardiac output increases, causing vasoconstriction blood pressure increases. Cardiovascular system: high blood pressure (volume receptors in atria and endocrine cells in atria, and carotid and aortic baroreceptors) cardiac output decreases, causing vasodilation blood pressure decreases. Kidney pathway: low blood pressure (volume receptors in atria and carotid and aortic baroreceptors) conserve water to minimize further volume loss blood pressure increases.
