1. Explain how the following can affect fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance.
A. Age
Discription:-
Infants and children have greater water needs and are more vulnerable to fluid volume alterations; fever in children creates an increase in the rate of insensible water loss; adolescents have increased metabolic processes; older adults have decreased thirst sensation that often causes electrolyte imbalances.
