Question

The maintenance of normal volume and composition of extracellular and intracellular fluids is vital to life. List and briefly describe the kinds of homeostasis involved.

Answer 1

Answer:

Fluid Balance, Electrolyte Balance, Acid-Base Balance

Explanation:

The amount of fluids and the quantity of each are vital to the body for it to function properly. This is regulated by three kinds of homeostasis.

1- Fluid Balance : The balance of total liquids between the inside of the body and the outside environment so that the cells don't die.

2- Electrolyte Balance : The amount of electrolytes in the body must be kept at a level where the body's at a healthy pH level so that the nervous system and other functions that rely on neurological paths can continue.

3- Acid-Base Balance : It is required to be at a certain point so that the blood does not harm the kidney's and lungs and they can function properly.
