46. ELECTROLYTES Compounds, that when placed in a solution, conduct an electric current and emit dissociated particles of electrolytes (ions) that carry either a positive charge (cation) or negative charge (anion) (Kee & Paulanka, 2000, p. 42)
47. ELECTROLYTES Na + & Cl - -> ECF K + -> ICF Mg + = -> ICF Ca + -> almost equal in ICF & ECF (Kee & Paulanka, 2000, p. 42)
48. ELECTROLYTES Terms: Anabolism -> formation of new tissue Catabolism -> tissue breakdown (Kee & Paulanka, 2000, p. 46)
