Regulation of intake & Regulation of intake & outputoutput
Water loss varies in amount. To maintain balance, the body uses
mechanisms to adjust intake and output.

Mechanisms to Mechanisms to ↑↑ intake intake1. Physical changes stimulate thirst
center in hypothalamus.2. Salivation decreases, causing dry
mouth and thirst.3. Water consumption occurs.

Mechanisms to Mechanisms to ↓↓ output output1. Physical changes stimulate the
hypothalamus.2. This stimulates the posterior pituitary
to secrete antidiuretic hormone (ADH).3. ADH prompts the kidneys to reabsorb
water and produce less urine.4. Fluid loss slows until water is ingested.

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is released in response to:
A.a rise in blood pressure.B.an increase in fluid volume.C.a decrease in both serum sodium and osmolarity.D.an increase in both serum sodium and osmolarity.
Copyright © 2012 F.A. Davis Company
Understanding Anatomy & PhysiologyUnderstanding Anatomy & PhysiologyA Visual, Interactive ApproachA Visual, Interactive Approach
Correct answer: D
Rationale:ADH is secreted in the volume of total body water declines, which leads to a drop in blood pressure and an increase in serum sodim and osmolarity.

Which condition results when the body eliminates more water than sodium?
A.EdemaB.DehydrationC.Water intoxicationD.Volume depletion
Copyright © 2012 F.A. Davis Company
Understanding Anatomy & PhysiologyUnderstanding Anatomy & PhysiologyA Visual, Interactive ApproachA Visual, Interactive Approach
Correct answer: B
Rationale:Edema is the accumulation of fluid in interstitial spaces. Water intoxication is the consumption of more water than sodium. Volume depletion is the loss of both sodium and water.

Sodium imbalancesSodium imbalancesHypernatremia
Plasma concentration greater than 146 mEq/L
Indicates fluid deficit Usually self-corrects
by triggering thirst
Hyponatremia
Plasma concentration less than 139 mEq/L
Results from excess body water
Usually corrected by excretion of excess water

What is the main cation of extracellular fluid?
A.PotassiumB.SodiumC.ChlorideD.Calcium
Copyright © 2012 F.A. Davis Company
Understanding Anatomy & PhysiologyUnderstanding Anatomy & PhysiologyA Visual, Interactive ApproachA Visual, Interactive Approach
Correct answer: B
Rationale: Potassium is the main cation in intracellular fluid. Chloride is the most abundant extracellular anion and is linked to sodium. Calcium exists mostly outside the cell but is not the chief extracellular cation.

Chemical buffersChemical buffers Includes bicarbonate, phosphate, and
protein buffer systems Use weak base to bind H+ ions and
weak acid to release them

Physiological buffersPhysiological buffers Includes respiratory and urinary
systems. Lungs expel CO2 to lower pH. Kidneys expel H+ ions to lower pH.

Respiratory control of pHRespiratory control of pH Central chemoreceptors in the brainstem detect
a decline in pH from an accumulation of CO2. They signal the respiratory centers to increase
the rate and depth of breathing. The lungs blow off CO2. Less CO2 is available to combine with water to
form carbonic acid; the concentration of H+ ions decreases and pH rises.

Renal control of pHRenal control of pH Expels H+ ions and reabsorbs
bicarbonate Is the most powerful buffer system Is also the slowest to respond

When the body’s pH rises above normal, which reaction would occur first?
A.Respiratory rate would increaseB.Kidneys would excrete hydrogen ionsC.Hydrogen would bind with bicarbonateD.Hydrogen would bind with carbonic acid
Copyright © 2012 F.A. Davis Company
Understanding Anatomy & PhysiologyUnderstanding Anatomy & PhysiologyA Visual, Interactive ApproachA Visual, Interactive Approach
Correct answer: C
Rationale: Although both an increase in respiratory rate and the excretion of hydrogen ions from the kidneys would help lower pH, neither would be the first response. Hydrogen does not bind with carbonic acid.

CAUSES OF ACID GAIN(Acidosis)
CAUSES OF ACID LOSS(Alkalosis)
RESPIRATORY Retention of CO2 (hypoventilation—such as from emphysema or pneumonia—as well as apnea)
Loss of CO2 (hyperventilation)
METABOLIC Increased production of acids (such as ketone bodies in diabetes mellitus or lactic acid in anaerobic metabolism)
Consumption of acidic drugs (such as aspirin)
Inability of the kidneys to excrete H+ ions
Loss of bicarbonate (such as chronic diarrhea)
Loss of gastric juices (such as through vomiting or suctioning)
Excessive ingestion of bicarbonates (such as antacids)

Which electrolyte disturbance would result from acidosis?
A.HypernatremiaB.HyponatremiaC.HyperkalemiaD.Hypokalemia
Copyright © 2012 F.A. Davis Company
Understanding Anatomy & PhysiologyUnderstanding Anatomy & PhysiologyA Visual, Interactive ApproachA Visual, Interactive Approach
Correct answer: C
Rationale: Acidosis does not affect the concentration of sodium in the blood. Hypokalemia would result from alkalosis, caused as potassium moves into the cell to balance the movement of hydrogen ions out of the cell.
