| A | B |
| Isotonic | Same solute concentration |
| Hypertonic | Higher concerntration of solutes than another solution |
| Hypotonic | lowere solute concentration than another solution |
| Diffusion | Movement of solutes across a semipermeable membrane |
| Osmosis | movement of h2o from an area with more fluid to an area of less fluid. |
| hypokalemia | low potassium <3.5meg/l |
| hyperkalemia | high potassium >5.3meg/l |
| hyponatremia | low sodium <135 mEg/l |
| hypernatremia | high sodium >145mEg/l |
| filtration | h2o and solutes move between compartments in response to fluid pressure |
| metabolic acidosis | low ph, <7.35, low HCO3 <22 |
| respiratory acidosis | low ph, <7.35, high CO2 >45 |
| metabolic alkolosis | High ph, >7.45, high HCO3 >26 |
| respiratory alkolosis | high ph, >7.45, low CO2 <35 |
| ECF- extracellular fluid | sodium, chloride, calcium,& bicarbonate abundant |
| ICF- intracellular fluid | potassium, magnesium, & phosphate abundant |
