1. Potassium

   Linked via "excitable tissues"

   Biological Role and Deficiency States
   In biological systems, potassium ions ($\text{K}^+$) are the primary intracellular cation, governing osmotic balance and contributing significantly to the resting membrane potential in excitable tissues. The typical mammalian intracellular concentration ($\approx 150 \text{ mM}$) is maintained through the ubiquitous [sod…
