The substance which has a sweet fruity odor that is found in small quantities in normal urine and in larger amount in diabetic urine is?
acetone
What occurs when the plasma concentration of a substance exceeds tubular maximum?
The amount of substance that exceeds the tubular maximum will be found in the urine.
What hormone increase the amount of water lost in the urine?
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, increases the reabsorption of water in the kidneys, reducing the amount of water lost in the urine. If ADH levels are low, more water will be lost in the urine, leading to increased urination and potential dehydration.
How does ADH affect the concentration of potassium in urine?
ADH, or antidiuretic hormone, increases water reabsorption in the kidneys, leading to more concentrated urine. As water is reabsorbed, the concentration of solutes in the urine, including potassium, increases. Therefore, ADH indirectly affects the concentration of potassium in urine by influencing the overall concentration of solutes.
What indicates the amount of dissolved substance in the urine?
The specific gravity of urine indicates the amount of dissolved substances in urine. It is a measure of the density of urine compared to water. A higher specific gravity indicates a higher concentration of dissolved substances, while a lower specific gravity indicates a lower concentration.
What is the Substance that increases urine of untreated diabetic?
Glucose is high in the urine of an untreated diabetic. Glucose itself makes the urine hyperosmolar (concentrated with solutes), which in turn makes it absorb extra water from surrounding tissues, which creates extra, dilute urine. This in turn dehydrates the surrounding tissues making the patient thirsty.
What does an increased amount of ADH lead to A an increased amount of urine B a decreased amount of urine C no change in the amount of urine D kidney failure E none of the above?
C no change in amount of urine
What is the substance stored in the bladder?
Urine.
What is an abnormal substance in urine?
blood
What is a Diuretic agent?
It is a drug which increases urine output
What happen when ADH increases?
decrease urine output
When the concentration of ADH increases?
less urine is produced
