    For typical ionic solids, the cations are smaller than the anions, and each cation is surrounded by coordinated anions which form a polyhedron.The sum of the ionic radii determines the cation-anion distance, while the cation-anion radius ratio + / (or /) determines the coordination number (C.N.) of the cation, as well as the shape of the coordinated polyhedron of anions.

    Fluid and electrolyte balance, in which fluid balance and electrolyte balance are intertwined homeostatically, is necessary to health in all organisms.It includes reference ranges for cation concentrations of biometals, which in reference to human medicine and veterinary medicine principally includes those for blood serum ion concentrations in humans and in livestock and pets.

    Ions often move through the segments of the channel pore in a single file nearly as quickly as the ions move through the free solution. In many ion channels, passage through the pore is governed by a "gate", which may be opened or closed in response to chemical or electrical signals, temperature, or mechanical force.
