Distinguish among the fluid compartment shifts/ Biology
Describe the distribution of water between the fluid compartments of a typical mammal. Explain the mechanisms by which the central nervous system senses and regulates total body water volume and osmolarity. Distinguish among the fluid compartment shifts that occur with common disturbances of body fluid homeostasis. Define GFR and filtration fraction, and explain the role of renal arterial blood pressure in determining them. How is GFR calculated?
