  1. Water II By: Brianna Ackerman & Taylor Panfil

  2. How does it get there? • Fruits and Vegetables we consume • Liquids! Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate! • Ingested water travels through the Digestive System and is absorbed into the bloodstream via the Small Intestine. • About 80% of ingested water is absorbed into the blood. • The rest travels to the Large Intestine where it is utilized during the formation of feces.

  3. How does it get there? • Metabolic Water • Produced as an end product of macronutrient oxidation • Lipid Catabolism is the most abundant source • Produces about .3L daily

  4. That’s one busy molecule! • Crossing the Membrane • Osmosis: Intracellular  Extracellular • Passive Transport • Water diffuses from a Hypotonic Cell (low solute/ high water content)  Hypertonic Cell (high solute/low water content) • If water is not transferred into a Hypertonic Cell it will shrivel up (Crenation) • If water is not transferred out of a Hypotonic Cell it will burst (Cytolysis) • An Isotonic cell is a happy cell. • Water is equally concentrated inside and outside the cell and fluids can flow freely between compartments.

  5. Chemistry Review!

  6. Hormonal Regulation • ICF and ECF levels are maintained by hormonal messages from the Brain and Kidneys • If a a cell becomes too concentrated in one fluid compartment it will pull water from another compartment (Osmosis) to dilute itself to maintain homeostasis (Isotonic State)

  7. Hormonal Regulation • When ICF and ECF levels are unequal • The Brain is signaled by ADH that the cells are dehydrating due to water transferring out of the cell into the bloodstream • The Brain then promotes a feeling of thirst, encouraging the body to ingest more water through food or drink • Thirsty feelings will continue until the cells return to homeostasis (Isotonic state) • The transfer of ICF to ECF is via diffusion across the capillary wall

  8. Hormonal Regulation • If there is excess fluid present in the body than is desired the kidneys are prompted to produce urine by ADH • Kidneys produce urine by filtering excess fluid from the blood

  9. Water Formation • Water contains 1 Oxygen atom and 2 Hydrogen atoms connected by covalent bonds • Metabolic Water • Made in the ETC • O2 is split into 2 separate oxygen atoms • H2’s are cleaved from NADH2 and FADH2 and combine with a singular oxygen atom to form water (H2O)
