Answer 1

Answer

1. Electrolytes are physiologically important because they affect electrical potential across membranes and contribute to osmolarity of body fluids.
   
   
2. Major cations of the body include sodium, potassium, and hydrogen.
   
   
3. Oppositely, major anions include chloride, bicarbonate and phosphate.
   
   
4. Concentrations of these anions and cations are needed in specific amounts to maintain normal metabolism of the body.
   
   
5. Electrolyte concentration above or below the normal needed amounts can lead to disorders.
