Chapter 32.5, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To write:
If blood vessel ruptures, what happens to the distribution of water in the fluid compartment should be determined.
Introduction:
The water in an animal’s body is present inside the cells, and this water is known as intracellular fluid. Intracellular fluid is also known as cytosol. The water or the fluid found in the spaces between the cells is known as interstitial fluid or tissue fluid. The extracellular fluid is basically the composition of all body fluids that are present outside the cells.

Warm-blooded animals have a narrow range of body tem-perature because their bodies have a high water content. Explain.
SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY You are exploring kidney function inkangaroo rats. You measure urine volume and osmolarity, as wellas the amount of chloride (Cl-) and urea in the urine. If the watersource provided to the animals were switched from tap water toa 2% NaCl solution, indicate what change in urine osmolarityyou would expect. How would you determine if this change wasmore likely due to a change in the excretion of Cl-or urea?
When a salmon or other teleost fish migrates from seawater intofreshwater, what are all the changes that take place or are likelyto take place in its patterns of water–salt physiology?
