Complete each sentence about the balance between water and electrolytes with the appropriate term.

-When dissolved in water, some compounds separate into positively and negatively charged ions and enable transmission of an electrical current. Such ions in solution are known as electrolytes. -When the concentration of ions on opposite sides of a cell membrane is imbalanced, water moves across the membrane to the compartment of highest ion concentration. This movement of water along a concentration gradient is called osmosis. -If the intracellular concentration of ions is greater than the extracellular concentration, water will move into the cell, which may cause the cell to burst. -Cells that line the intestine actively absorb the ion sodium. Due to the concentration gradient that is created across the intestinal cell membrane, water in the intestinal lumen is passively absorbed, thus allowing absorption of most of the water that enters the GI tract.
