osmoregulation
Osmoregulation is the way living things keep the right balance of water and dissolved salts inside their bodies and cells. It involves moving water and ions like sodium and potassium across cell membranes so that cells do not swell with too much water or shrink from too little. Animals use organs such as kidneys, simple membranes, and special proteins that pump ions to regulate this balance, while single-celled organisms use membrane channels and internal molecules that influence water flow. Hormones and other chemical signals help coordinate these processes in larger animals, adjusting how much water is kept or lost. Small molecules called osmolytes, such as certain amino acids, accumulate in cells to protect proteins and structures when outside conditions change. Osmoregulation matters because the right water and salt balance keeps cells working properly, helps nerves send signals, and keeps blood pressure steady. When osmoregulation fails, people can get dehydration, water overload, swelling, or disturbances in heart rhythm and brain function. Understanding this process helps explain why drinking water, salt intake, and organ health are so important for everyday well-being. It also guides medical treatments for conditions that involve fluid imbalance.
