Yes. Urine is intravascular fluid. That said the body can crenate cells to create intravascular fluid from intracellular fluid. This usually is short term but common in chronic dehydration. Elevated K+ in a malnourished person is hallmark of cellular dehydration.

Chloride is an Anion in Extracellular Fluid
What is found in extracellular fluid?

Fluid found OUtSiDE of a cell is called?
cytoplasm
What is extracellular fluid AND where is it found?
Extracellular fluid is the fluid outside of cells. It is in the interstitial space, in the blood vessels and lymph vessels
Extracellular fluid is found everywhere in the body EXCEPT?
Extracellular is outside cells and intracellular is inside, so that extracellular fluid would not be inside cells.
Is blood plasma extracellular or intracellular?
It is the intravascular fluid part of extracellular fluid (all body fluid outside of cells)
What are some uses for extracellular fluid?
Extracellular fluid is the body fluid outside the cell that is composed of blood plasma, interstitial fluid, lymph and transcellular fluid. It resides outside the cells and transports mmaterials to and from the cells
What separates the intracellular and extracellular fluid compartments?
The barrier that separates the interstitial fluid from the intracellular fluid is the plasma membrane. The interstitial fluid is a major component of the extracellular fluid.
