ScenarioScenario• An athlete ran a marathon even though he felt ill…• After the race he collapsed. He was pale with a low blood
pressure and sunken eyes. One knee and ankle were badly swollen, and his abdomen was distended with fluid. The doctor diagnosed appendicitis and dehydration.
Question:• What has happened to his:
– Blood osmolarity?– Cell size? – Transcellular fluid volume? – Vascular compartment volume?

Question Question
What forces work to keep blood in the capillary?
a. Capillary colloid osmotic pressure (COP) & tissue COP
b. Capillary hydrostatic pressure & tissue COP
c. Capillary hydrostatic pressure & tissue hydrostatic pressure
d. Capillary COP & tissue hydrostatic pressure
![Page 8: Chapter008](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062313/5583a90ad8b42aea578b544c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Answer Answer
d. Capillary COP & tissue hydrostatic pressure
Hydrostatic pressure can be thought of as “pushing pressure,” and osmotic pressure can be thought of as “pulling” pressure. Pressure in the capillary that pulled/kept fluid in (capillary COP) and pressure pushing fluid out of the tissue (tissue hydrostatic pressure) would result in more fluid in the capillary.

Controlling Blood OsmolarityControlling Blood Osmolarity
• High osmolarity causes:
– Thirst increased water intake
– ADH release water reabsorbed from urine
• Low osmolarity causes:
– Lack of thirst decreased water intake
– Decreased ADH release water lost in urine
![Page 12: Chapter008](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062313/5583a90ad8b42aea578b544c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Question Question
Tell whether the following statement is true or false:
Increased levels of ADH decrease urine output.
![Page 13: Chapter008](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062313/5583a90ad8b42aea578b544c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Copyright © 2011 Wolters Kluwer Health | Lippincott Williams & Wilkins
Answer Answer
True
ADH prevents diuresis by causing more water to be absorbed in the kidney tubules. If more water is absorbed, there is less water left to eliminate as waste, decreasing urine output.

Question Question
What effect does a potassium level of 7.5 mEq/L have on resting membrane potential (RMP)?
a. RMP becomes less negative, and it takes a greater stimulus in order for cells to fire.
b. RMP becomes less negative, and it takes less of a stimulus in order for cells to fire.
c. RMP becomes more negative, and it takes a greater stimulus in order for cells to fire.
d. RMP becomes more negative, and it takes less of a stimulus in order for cells to fire.
![Page 26: Chapter008](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062313/5583a90ad8b42aea578b544c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Copyright © 2011 Wolters Kluwer Health | Lippincott Williams & Wilkins
Answer Answer
b. RMP becomes less negative, and it takes less of a stimulus in order for cells to fire.
A potassium level of 7.5 mEq/L is considered hyperkalemic. In hyperkalemia, RMP is moved closer to the threshold (it becomes less negative). Because RMP is nearer to the threshold, a weaker stimulus will cause the cell to fire (a lesser distance must be overcome).

Question Question
Tell whether the following statement is true or false:
Both hyperkalemia and hypercalcemia cause cells to fire more easily.

Copyright © 2011 Wolters Kluwer Health | Lippincott Williams & Wilkins
Answer Answer
False
Recall that hyperkalemia cause cells to fire more easily by moving RMP closer to the threshold. Hypercalcemia, on the other hand, blocks more sodium gates. If less sodium enters the cell, it cannot depolarize as quickly (it is less likely to fire). Hypocalcemia blocks fewer sodium gates–cells depolarize more quickly (they are more likely to fire).
