The ultimate cause of death due to dehydration is a fluid/volume shift that causesstructural changes to cells and cellular proteins. Which of the following correctlydescribes the steps that lead to this lethal fluid/volume shift?50.A. Extracellular osm.pressure increases..which leads to an increase in total-body-water. Water then moves out of cells.B. A net water loss causes intracellular osm.-press. to decrease. Water then moves out ofcells.C. A netwater loss causes extracellular osm.-press. to decrease; total-body-waterincreases and fluid moves out of cells.D. A net water loss causes total-body-water to decrease and extracellular osm-press toincrease. Water then moves down its' concentration gradient (out of cells) into theextracellular space.

Water is absolutely essential to human life and bodily function. The human body is, in fact, made up…

Countercurrent exchange in the fish gill helps to maximise [Blank]. Question 20 options: diffusion osmosis active transport blood pressure
A phospholipid bilayer separates two chambers. The chambers both contain the same volume of water. The left chamber contains 150 mM of an unknown solute A. Solute B is dissolved in the right chamber also at a concentration of 150 mM. Therefore, the initial osmolarity is the same (isotonic) between the two chambers. However, after a short time, the volume increases substantially in the right chamber. What is the most likely ranking of permeability for the molecules to cause this change? (greater permeability means that the molecule moves first across the membrane)
What would happen if all of the Na+/K+ pumps in a cell stopped working? One of the other transport proteins will immediately take over The voltage across the membrane will immediately get more negative The voltage across the membrane will immediately get more positive Nothing will change Gradients and voltage across the membrane will slowly run down All of the above

Absorption = the movement of a substance into a lumen of a hollow organ Endocytosis = the removal of a substance from the body Exocytosis = the release of a substance from a cell into the interstitial fluid Secretion = the movement of a substance between epithelial cells

You said that "Exposure to an extremely salty environment, on the other hand, could potentially harm them by disrupting their internal environment and causing dehydration or an ion imbalance." I can't seem to find this anywhere do you have a research paper or source to show this? Thanks for your time and help I appreiate it
