Unit 8 Taylor Chpt 40

substance containing a hydrogen ion that can be liberated or released

condition characterized by a proportionate excess of hydrogen ions in the extracellular fluid, in which pH falls below 7.35

is the movement of a substance against its concentration gradient (from low to high concentration) and requires energy

an antibody that causes a clumping of specific antigens

condition characterized by a proportionate lack of hydrogen ions in the extracellular fluid concentration, in which the pH exceeds 7.45

ion that carries a negative electric charge

immunoglobin produced by the body in response to a specific antigen

foreign material capable of inducing a specific immune response

occcurs when a patient denotes his or her own blood for a transfusion.

substance that can accept or trap a hydrogen ion; synonym for alkali.

substance that prevents body fluid from becoming overly acid or alkaline

ion that carries a positive electric charge

pressure exerted by plasma proteins on permeable membranes in the body; synonym for oncotic pressure

act of determining the compatibility of two blood specimens

tendency of solutes to move freeely throughout a solvent from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concerntration until equilibrium is established

accumulation of fluid in extracellular fluid

substance capable of breaking into ions and developing an electric charge when dissolved in solution

passage of a fluid through a permeable membrane whose spaces do not allow certain solutes to pass; passage is from an area of higher pressure to one of lower pressure

force exerted by a fluid against the container wall

excess of calcium in the extracellular fluid

excess of potassium in the extracellular fluid

excess of magnesium in the extracellular fluid

excess of sodium in the extracellular fluid

above-normal serum concentration of inorganic phosphorus

having a greater concentration than the solution with which it is being compared

excess of plasma

insufficient amount of calcium in the extracellular fluid

insufficient amount of potassium in the extrcellular fluid

insufficient amount of magnesium in the extracellular fluid

insufficent amount of sodium in the extracellular fluid

below-normal serum concentration of inorganic phosphorus

having a lesser concentration than the solution with which it is being compared

deficiency of blood plasma

atom or molecule carrying and electric charge in a solution

having the same concentration as the solution with which it is being compared

concentration of particles in a solution or a solution's pulling power

passage of a solvent through a semipermeable membrane from an area of lesser concentration to an area of greater concentration until equilibrium is established

expression of hydrogen ion concentration and resulting acidity of a substance

substance dissolved in a solution

liquid holding a substance in a solution

determining a person's blood type
