Kehavedelikest

Kehavedelikest refers to the fluids within the human body. These liquids play a crucial role in maintaining life by facilitating various physiological processes. The major bodily fluids include blood, lymph, interstitial fluid, and intracellular fluid. Blood is a complex connective tissue that circulates throughout the body, transporting oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and waste products. Lymph is a clear fluid that circulates in the lymphatic system, aiding in immune function and fluid balance. Interstitial fluid bathes the body's cells, providing them with nutrients and removing waste. Intracellular fluid is the fluid found within cells, essential for their metabolic activities. These fluids are in constant motion and exchange, maintaining homeostasis, the body's stable internal environment. The regulation of these fluids is critical for health, and imbalances can lead to various medical conditions. Electrolytes, such as sodium, potassium, and chloride, are dissolved in these fluids and are vital for nerve and muscle function, as well as maintaining fluid balance. The overall volume and composition of bodily fluids are tightly regulated by hormones and the kidneys.
