Distilled water is the preferred liquid to refill automotive batteries that have been in service a while. While some batteries are sealed tops and cannot be serviced, there are still some batteries with accessible cells. Use distilled water in a proper battery service dispenser to avoid overfilling. Distilled water is preferred because it lacks the chemicals and impurities found in ordinary tap water that can shorten a battery's life. Sulphuric acid should never be added to a battery that has already been placed in service. The pH level of the acid is too high for anything other than a brand new virgin battery. And as always, safety first! Gloves, goggles and apron.

What regulates water reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules?
The hormone aldosterone regulates water reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules. It works by increasing the reabsorption of sodium ions, which in turn triggers the reabsorption of water from the tubules back into the bloodstream.
What is the term used to describe moving from the heart out to the arm?
distal
Is the distal tubule and collecting ducts relatively impermeable due to water in the absence of hormones?
No, the distal tubule and collecting ducts are not impermeable to water in the absence of hormones. These segments of the nephron regulate water reabsorption based on hormonal signals, particularly antidiuretic hormone (ADH). When ADH is present, water channels called aquaporins are inserted into the tubule walls, allowing for increased water reabsorption.
Is the distal convoluted tubule more permeable to water than solutes?
No, the distal convoluted tubule is more permeable to solutes (such as sodium and chloride ions) than water. Water reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule is regulated by the hormone aldosterone and antidiuretic hormone (ADH).
What is pertaining to far from the beginning of a structure?
The term for referring to a part of a structure that is far from the beginning is "distal". This is typically used in anatomy to describe the location of a body part, with distal meaning further away from the center of the body or point of attachment.
Is the foot distal or proximal to the heart?
Distal
What is the opposite of distal?
Proximal is the opposite of distal.
Anti duretic hormone increases absorption of?
It increase the reabsorption of water. That is from distal convaluted tubules
What are the processes of distal tubule?
This is in the kidney and it mainly controls how much or little water is kept in the body
Which joint is distal to the knee?
Yes. Distal means farther from the point of attachment or from the center of the body. So the knee is distal to the hip, and the food would be distal to the knee and so on.
How do you the word distal in a sentence?
The distal end of the bone was fractured in the accident.
The hormone ADH functions to promote water re-abdsorption through the wall of what in the kidney?
ADH promotes water reabsorption through the wall of the collecting duct in the kidney by increasing the permeability of the duct to water. This helps regulate water balance in the body by allowing the reabsorption of water into the bloodstream.
