Question

<span>Choose the </span>correct<span> statement regarding water balance and sodium

balance.</span><br /><table><tbody><tr><td> Increased blood volume results if the ECF volume increases.</td> </tr><tr><td> Decreased aldosterone release is an endocrine response to decreased blood volume and blood pressure.</td> </tr><tr><td> Natriuretic peptide release results in decreased water loss in urine.</td> </tr><tr><td> Reduced blood pressure results in increased ECF volume.</td> </tr></tbody></table><br />When ADH secretion increases to regulate sodium balance with increased water consumption, the result is: <table><tbody><tr><td> increased sodium concentrations.</td> </tr><tr><td> water shifting into the ICF.</td> </tr><tr><td> decreased ECF volume.</td> </tr><tr><td> decreased Na+ levels in ECF.</td> </tr></tbody></table><br />All of the following statements are true of potassium balance except: <table><tbody><tr><td> The activity of ion pumps is regulated by circulating levels of rennin.</td> </tr><tr><td> The primary mechanism of potassium secretion involves diffusion.</td> </tr><tr><td> Potassium balance exists when the rate of urinary potassium excretion matches the rate of digestive tract absorption.</td> </tr><tr><td> Roughly 98 percent of the potassium content of the human body is in the ICF.</td></tr></tbody></table>
