Hyperphosphatemia, that is, an abnormally high serum phosphate level, can result from increased phosphate (PO4) intake, decreased phosphate excretion, or a disorder that shifts intracellular phosphate to extracellular space. (See Pathophysiology, Etiology, Clinical Presentation, and Workup.)
Location is a major part of geography, which is a subject that looks at the physical features of the Earth and its atmosphere. Even when we consider elements of human geography, we think about those things with reference to location.
Geography is part of everyday life and includes the land, weather, economic structure and culture of the world. Clothing styles, for example, are determined by geography because geographical location determines the temperature, climate and available materials for textiles. Studying geography encourages students to think critically about how the surroundings of a culture can trigger the change and development of the society.
