Question

composition of interstitial fluid 1st year level
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Here is your answer.

Explanation:

The interstitial fluid bathes the outside of the blood vessels and makes up about 75% of the total amount of EC fluid (plasma is the other 25%). Interstitial fluid contains water and dissolved solutes and proteins. ... The solutes are sugar, salts, acids, hormones, neurotransmitters, wastes and electrolytes.

Answer 2

Answer:

Interstitial Fluid Composition:

-Interstitial fluid consists of a water solvent containing sugars, salts, fatty acids, amino acids, coenzymes, hormones, neurotransmitters, white blood cells and cell waste-products. This solution accounts for 26% of the water in the human body.

Explanation:

Percsntage Composition;

The extracellular fluid comprises approximately 20% of total body weight and further subcategorizes as plasma at approximately 5% of body weight and interstitial space which is approximately 12% of body weight.

Calculation:-

calculate the interstitial (fluid not in the cells and not in the blood) fluid volume, subtract the plasma volume from the extracellular volume. To calculate the intracellular fluid volume subtract the extracellular fluid volume from the total fluid volume.
