Fluid Concept Project Part 2

- A hypotonic environment would be created in the body fluid, as there would be a lower concentration of solutes outside of the cell than inside the cell. This would create the effect of water entering the cells at an abnormal rate, and the cells, eventually, would burst.

D2: Analyse the impact on the human body of dysfunctions in relation to water balance

Transition: Firstly, I will discuss several reasons why major organs need our bodies to consume water

2. These fluids like water are vital to us because we would not be able to live more than a few days without some fluids in our body.

In this assignment I will be describing the microstructure of a typical animal cell and the functions of the main cell components. Describing and explaining the factors the ways in which materials move in and out of cells. I will also be analysing the role of the phospholipid bilayer in terms of movement of materials in and out of cells.

Discussion: Cells need waterthis cell was hypertonic, meaning the solution had more solute; these cells were hypotonic, meaning the solutions had less solute; these cells were isotonic, meaning the solution had equal solute.

The human body consists mostly of water, and is a major constituent to the human body and vital organs; of this 90% include blood plasma, lymph, urine, saliva, digestive juices, bile, cerebrospinal fluid and tissue fluid. Water enables substances to be transported throughout the body, red blood cells for example, as wells as supplying the medium required for metabolic reaction to take place (respiration). Without water the progression of these fluids would not be possible. Water is constantly being transported between the fluid compartments of

C. Describe and explain the differences in CELL composition between the 3 primary body fluids: blood, intercellular (AKA interstitial) fluid, lymph.

D2- Analyse the impact on the human body of the dysfunction in relation to water balance.

Water also helps the liver eliminate toxins in the body. In order for this process to occur your liver detoxifies the toxin by adding a electrically charged molecule to it causing it to become polar just

The purpose of this experiment is to observe the natural process of osmosis using drops of sheep’s blood in various saline solutions. Since the cell membrane is a selective membrane, the water goes in and out freely but a solute such as NaCl it cannot freely move in or out. Osmosis is a passive process that doesn’t require the input of energy to transport water molecules across a membrane. The channels that allow water to enter or leave a cell are known as aquaporin. Using aquaporin, water moves from a solution with a low solute concentration to a solution with a higher solute concentration. This process continues until equilibrium in solute concentration is established between a cell and its environment.

movement of water in tissues and maintain the fluidity of mucus and other secretions [3].

In animal cells, the movement of water into and out of the cell is influenced by the relative concentration of solute

-The Reynolds number of this experiment was then calculated using equation (4) where c is the length of the aerofoil chord and is the dynamic viscosity of air.

Hydration with water and other water-based liquids is critical for survival and functioning of the body’s organs. Water is 60% of the total human body composition. Water is involved in the
