The figure shows erythrocytes in nacl solutions. Erythrocytes in hypertonic solution. Osmotic pressure of the blood

In a hypotonic solution, osmotic hemolysis

in hypertensive - plasmolysis.

Plasma oncotic pressure takes part in the exchange of water between blood and intercellular fluid. driving force filtration of fluid from the capillary into the intercellular space is the hydrostatic pressure of the blood (Pg). In the arterial part of the capillary, P g = 30-40 mm Hg, in the venous part - 10-15 mm Hg. Hydrostatic pressure is counteracted by the force of oncotic pressure (Р onc = 30 mm Hg), which tends to keep the liquid and substances dissolved in it in the lumen of the capillary. Thus, the filtration pressure (P f) in the arterial part of the capillary is:

R f = R g  R onc or R f = 40  30 = 10 mm Hg.

In the venous part of the capillary, the relationship changes:

Р f = 15  30 =  15 mm Hg. Art.

This process is called resorption.

The figure shows the change in the ratios of hydrostatic (numerator) and oncotic (denominator) pressures (mm Hg) in the arterial and venous parts of the capillary.

Physiological features

internal environment in childhood

The internal environment of newborns is relatively stable. The mineral composition of plasma, its osmotic concentration and pH differ little from the blood of an adult.

The stability of homeostasis in children is achieved by integrating three factors: the composition of the plasma, the characteristics of the metabolism of a growing organism, and the activity of one of the main organs that regulates the constancy of the plasma composition (kidneys.

Any deviation from a well-balanced diet carries the risk of disturbing homeostasis. For example, if a child eats more food than corresponds to tissue absorption, then the concentration of urea in the blood rises sharply to 1 g / l or more (normally 0.4 g / l), since the kidney is not yet ready to excrete an increased amount of urea .

Nervous and humoral regulation of homeostasis in newborns due to the immaturity of its individual links (receptors, centers, etc.) is less perfect. In this regard, one of the features of homeostasis during this period is wider individual fluctuations in blood composition, its osmotic concentration, pH, salt composition, etc.

The second feature of homeostasis in newborns is that their ability to counteract shifts in the main indicators of the internal environment is several times less effective than in adults. For example, even normal feeding causes a decrease in plasma Rosm in a child, while in adults, even taking a large amount of liquid food (up to 2% of body weight) does not cause any deviations from this indicator. This is because the mechanisms that counteract shifts in the basic constants of the internal environment have not yet been formed in newborns, and therefore are several times less effective than in adults.

End of description.

Parameter aType_of_figure will receive a value that specifies the drawing method to be attached to the object.

When using delegation, you must ensure that the method header matches the type of pointer used to store the address of the method.

container classes.Containers - they are specially organized objects used to store and manage objects of other classes. To implement containers, special container classes are developed. A container class usually includes a set of methods that allow you to perform certain operations on both a single object and a group of objects.

In the form of containers, as a rule, they implement complex data structures ( different kinds lists, dynamic arrays, etc.). The developer inherits the class from the element class, into which he adds the information fields he needs, and receives the required structure. If necessary, it can also inherit the class from the container class, adding its own methods to it (Fig. 1.30).

Rice. 1.30. Building classes based on
container class and element class

A container class usually includes methods for creating, adding, and removing elements. In addition, it must provide element-by-element processing (eg, searching, sorting). All methods are programmed for member class objects. Methods for adding and removing elements when performing operations often refer to special fields of the element class used to create the structure (for example, for a singly linked list - to the field that stores the address of the next element).

Methods that implement element-by-element processing must work with data fields defined in descendant classes of the element class.

Element-by-element processing of the implemented structure can be done in two ways. The first way - universal - is to use iterators the second is in the definition special method, which contains the address of the processing procedure in the parameter list.

In theory, an iterator should provide the ability to implement cyclic actions of the following form:

<очередной элемент>:=<первый элемент>

cycle-bye<очередной элемент>defined

<выполнить обработку>

<очередной элемент>:=<следующий элемент>

Therefore, it usually consists of three parts: a method that allows organizing data processing from the first element (obtaining the address of the first element of the structure); a method that organizes the transition to the next element, and a method that allows you to check the end of the data. In this case, access to the next portion of data is carried out through a special pointer to the current portion of data (a pointer to an object of the element class).

Example 1.12 Container class with an iterator (List class). Let's develop a container class List that implements a linear singly linked list of objects of the Element class, described as follows:

Class Element:

field Pointer_to_next

End of description.

The List class must include three methods that make up an iterator: method define_first, which should return a pointer to the first element, the method define_next, which should return a pointer to the next element, and the method End of list, which should return "yes" if the list is exhausted.

Class List

implementation

fields Pointer_to_first, Pointer_to_current

interface

method add_before_first(aItem)

method Delete_Last

method define_first

method define_next

method End of list

End of description.

Then element-by-element processing of the list will be programmed as follows:

element:= define_first

cycle-bye not end_of_list

Handle the element, possibly overriding its type

Element: = define _next

When using the second method of element-by-element processing of the implemented structure, the element processing procedure is passed in the parameter list. Such a procedure can be defined if the type of processing is known, for example, the procedure for deriving the values ​​of the information fields of an object. The procedure must be called from a method for each data element. In languages ​​with strong data typing, the procedure type must be declared in advance, and it is often impossible to foresee what additional parameters should be passed to the procedure. In such cases, the first method may be preferable.

Example 1.13 Container class with a procedure for processing all objects (List class). In this case, the List class will be described as follows:

Class List

implementation

fields Pointer_to_first, Pointer_to_current

interface

method add_before_first(aItem)

method Delete_Last

method Execute_for_all(aProcedure_processing)

End of description.

Accordingly, the type of processing procedure must be described in advance, taking into account the fact that it must receive the address of the processed element through parameters, for example:

processing_procedure (aItem)

The use of polymorphic objects when creating containers allows you to create fairly generic classes.

Parameterized classes.Parameterized class(or sample) is a class definition in which some of the used types of class components are defined through parameters. Thus, each the template defines a group of classes, which, despite the difference in types, are characterized by the same behavior. It is impossible to redefine a type during program execution: all type instantiation operations are performed by the compiler (more precisely, by the preprocessor).

Article by professional biology tutor T. M. Kulakova

Blood is the intermediate internal environment of the body, it's liquid connective tissue. Blood is made up of plasma and formed elements.

Composition of the blood It is 60% plasma and 40% formed elements.

blood plasma is made up of water organic matter(proteins, glucose, leukocytes, vitamins, hormones), mineral salts and decay products.

Shaped elements are erythrocytes and platelets

blood plasma is the liquid part of the blood. It contains 90% water and 10% dry matter, mainly proteins and salts.

Metabolic products (urea, uric acid) to be removed from the body. The concentration of salts in plasma is equal to the content of salts in blood cells. Blood plasma mainly contains 0.9% NaCl. The constancy of the salt composition ensures the normal structure and function of cells.

AT USE tests frequently asked questions about solutions: physiological (solution, NaCl salt concentration is 0.9%), hypertonic (NaCl salt concentration above 0.9%) and hypotonic (NaCl salt concentration below 0.9%).

For example, this question:

Administration of large doses medicines accompanied by their dilution with saline (0.9% NaCl solution). Explain why.

Recall that if a cell comes into contact with a solution whose water potential is lower than that of its contents (i.e. hypertonic saline), then water will leave the cell due to osmosis through the membrane. Such cells (eg erythrocytes) shrink and settle to the bottom of the tube.

And if you put blood cells in a solution whose water potential is higher than the contents of the cell (i.e., the salt concentration in the solution is below 0.9% NaCl), red blood cells begin to swell because water rushes into the cells. In this case, the erythrocytes swell, and their membrane is torn.

Let's answer the question:

1. The concentration of salts in the blood plasma corresponds to the concentration physiological saline 0.9% NaCl, which does not cause the death of blood cells;
2. The introduction of large doses of drugs without dilution will be accompanied by a change in the salt composition of the blood and cause cell death.

Remember that when writing an answer to a question, other wordings of the answer are allowed that do not distort its meaning.

For erudition: when the shell of erythrocytes is destroyed, hemoglobin enters the blood plasma, which turns red and becomes transparent. Such blood is called varnish blood.

Osmosis is the movement of water across a membrane towards a higher concentration of substances.

Fresh water

The concentration of substances in the cytoplasm of any cell is higher than in fresh water, so water constantly enters the cells that come into contact with fresh water.

  • erythrocyte in hypotonic solution fills up with water and bursts.
  • In freshwater protozoa, to remove excess water, there is contractile vacuole.
  • plant cell does not allow the cell wall to burst. The pressure of a water-filled cell on cell wall called turgor.

salty water

AT hypertonic solution water leaves the erythrocyte and it shrinks. If a person drinks sea ​​water, then salt will enter the plasma of his blood, and water will leave the cells into the blood (all cells will wrinkle). This salt will need to be excreted in urine, the amount of which will exceed the amount of sea water drunk.

Plants have plasmolysis(departure of the protoplast from the cell wall).

Isotonic solution

Saline is a 0.9% sodium chloride solution. The plasma of our blood has the same concentration, osmosis does not occur. In hospitals, on the basis of saline, a solution for a dropper is made.

One of the terrible diseases that claimed hundreds of thousands of lives every year was. In its dying stage, the human body, due to the continuous loss of water by vomiting, turns into a kind of mummy. A person dies, because his tissues cannot live without the necessary amount of water. It is impossible to enter the liquid through, because it is instantly thrown back due to indomitable vomiting. Doctors have long had an idea: to inject water directly into the blood, into the vessels. However, this problem was solved when the phenomenon called osmotic pressure was understood and taken into account.

We know that the gas, being in this or that vessel, puts pressure on its walls, trying to occupy the largest possible volume. The stronger the gas is compressed, i.e., the more particles it contains in a given space, the stronger this pressure will be. It turned out that substances dissolved, for example, in water, are in a certain sense similar to gases: they also tend to occupy the largest possible volume, and the more concentrated the solution, the greater the strength of this desire. What is the manifestation of this property of solutions? The fact that they greedily "attract" to themselves an additional amount of solvent. It is enough to add a little water to the salt solution, and the solution quickly becomes uniform; it seems to absorb this water into itself, thereby increasing its volume. The described property of the solution to attract to itself is called osmotic pressure.

If we place them in a glass of clean water, they will quickly “swell up” and burst. This is understandable: the protoplasm of erythrocytes is a solution of salts and proteins of a certain concentration, which has an osmotic pressure much higher than pure water, where there are few salts. Therefore, the erythrocyte "sucks" water to itself. If, on the contrary, we place red blood cells in a very concentrated salt solution, they will shrink - the osmotic pressure of the solution will be higher, it will "suck" the water out of the red blood cells. The rest of the body cells behave like red blood cells.

It is clear that in order to introduce a liquid into the bloodstream, it must have a concentration corresponding to their concentration in the blood. Experiments have established that such is a 0.9% solution. This solution is called physiological.

The introduction of 1-2 liters of such a solution intravenously to a dying cholera patient had a literally miraculous effect. A person “came to life” before our eyes, sat up in bed, asked for food, etc. Repeating the introduction of the solution 2-3 times a day, helped the body overcome the most difficult period diseases. Such solutions, containing a number of other substances, are now used in many diseases. In particular, the importance of blood-substituting solutions in war time. Blood loss is terrible not only because it deprives the body of erythrocytes, but above all because the function is disrupted, “tuned” to work with a certain amount of blood. Therefore, in cases where for one reason or another it is impossible, a simple introduction of saline can save the life of the wounded.

Knowledge of the laws of osmotic pressure has great value, because it generally helps to regulate the body's water metabolism. So, it becomes clear why salty food causes: an excess of salt increases the osmotic pressure of our tissues, that is, their “greed” for water. Therefore, patients with edema are given less salt so as not to retain water in the body. On the contrary, workers in hot shops, who lose a lot of water, must be poured with salted water, because with sweat they excrete salt and lose it. If in these cases a person will drink clean water, the greed of tissues for water will decrease, and this will increase. The state of the body will deteriorate sharply.
