Flashcard 192: How does osmolarity change with excessive NaCl intake?
_____
Answer: Increased
Extra: **Hyperosmotic Volume Expansion** (e.g., high NaCl intake):
* **Osmolarity**: Increased (in both ECF and ICF)
* **ECF Volume**: Increased (due to water shift from ICF)
* **ICF Volume**: Decreased (water moves into ECF)
Mechanism: Excessive NaCl intake increases ECF osmolarity, which draws water out of the intracellular compartment until osmotic equilibrium is reached.
Flashcard 193: How does the [TF]urea change in the cortical and outer medullary collecting ducts (ADH present)?
_____
Answer: Increased [TF]urea
