Open in App
Solution

The achievement of electrolyte balance:

  1. Electrolytes are generally the charged minerals in our body that are essential for normal health.
  2. The kidney helps in filtering the electrolytes to maintain the concentration of electrolytes in our body.
  3. The homeostatic value must be maintained.
  4. There must be a balance between water gain and loss and in a healthy amount.
  5. Secretion of aldosterone from the adrenal gland also controls electrolyte reabsorption in kidneys.
