Vedclass · Answer

(C) The osmotic pressure of intracellular and extracellular fluids is primarily maintained by the balance of electrolytes,specifically $Na^+$ and $K^+$ ions. Sodium $(Na^+)$ is the primary cation of extracellular fluid,while Potassium $(K^+)$ is the primary cation of intracellular fluid. Together,they regulate the movement of water across cell membranes,thereby maintaining osmotic balance and cellular volume.
