The movement of water between body fluid compartments

Smooth Transitions between Compartments The force that a fluid applies against a wall—hydrostatic pressure—is what moves fluid between compartments.

<h3>Where is fluid compartment?</h3>

Water makes roughly 60% of the adult human body, which is composed of intra- and extracellular fluid compartments. Extracellular fluid, which makes up 13 of the body's water, is found outside of cells. Two-thirds of the water in the body is found inside the mitochondria and is known as intracellular fluid.

<h3>Which body fluid compartment has the least fluid?</h3>

The fraction of fluid volume that is present in the gaps bordered with epithelial cells is known as transcellular fluid. It is the tiniest part of extravascular space, which also consists of plasma and interstitial fluid. Although it is often not expressed as a percentage of extracellular fluid, the body water content is around 2.5%.

"The movement of water between body fluid compartments is called osmosis.

<h3>What is osmosis?</h3>

Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane from a region of higher water concentration to a region of lower water concentration.

The selectively permeable membrane allows water to pass through, but not solutes, such as ions, glucose, and proteins. The water concentration of a solution is determined by the amount and type of solutes dissolved in it. The more solutes a solution has, the lower its water concentration, and vice versa.

Therefore, Osmosis occurs because water molecules are attracted to solutes by hydrogen bonds. Water molecules tend to move toward regions where there are more solutes, in order to balance the concentration gradient.

Which of the following processes suggest that matter is made up of minute particles.
Tasya [4]

Answer:

the answer is evaporation

Explanation: Evaporation is the process by which a liquid transforms into vapor (a gas). When some material is in its liquid phase, its particles are really close together (but not as much as we would see in a metal). As the temperature of the liquid increases, also does the kinetic energy of the particles. This cause the particles in the water to move a lot faster, thus its oscillations are larger. This causes an increase in the volume of the material.

kozerog [31]

Answer:

The rock cycle describes how rocks change as a result of natural processes. The rock cycle forms new rocks using the crystallization, erosion and compaction processes. This makes the correct answer: D: all of the above. Igneous rocks for example are rocks formed from the crystallization( formation of rock crystals in cooling magma) of a liquid. Sedimentary rocks are formed by erosion. However, in order to form a sedimentary rock, the accumulated sediment must become compacted and cemented together.
