What is the difference between concentrated urine vs dilute urine?
Concentrated urine forms because ADH is present which absorbs water. As tubular fluid flows down the descending convulated tubule, the water osmotic decreases. As it flows through the ascending tubule the water osmotic increases, becasue water is impermeable in ther ascedning Loop of Henle, so while Na and K are being taken out, water is not. There is also a counter current flow that happens in the LOH.
Osmotic diuresis?
DefinitionOsmotic diuresis is increased urination due to the presence of certain substances in the fluid filtered by the kidneys. (This fluid eventually becomes urine.)Causes, incidence, and risk factorsHigh blood sugar (glucose) can cause osmotic diuresis, as can medications such as Mannitol.
When water leaves a plant cell the osmotic pressure will increase of decrease?
The osmotic pressure will decrease. The osmotic pressure is decreased because the water is leaving the cell.
What is the difference between water and hydroxide?
The difference is the amount of hydrogen and oxygen
What is the difference between Ozone water and minerals water?
The difference between ozone water and mineral water is mineral water contains minerals that are beneficial to the body whereas ozone water is extremely clean and pure.
Is there any osmotic difference between a shark's fluids and the sea water in which it swims?
There is no osmotic difference. This happens more with freshwater vertebrates than marine creatures.
The driving force for the movement of materials in the phloem of plants is what?
a difference in osmotic water potential between the source and the sink
What is water loss that is difficult to detect and measure is called?
diuresis
Can you clap under water?
ans2-no men you can't because of the osmotic difference. ans1-you could but you would not realize that you are because you are already in water
What has the author F H Smirk written?
F. H. Smirk has written: 'The rate of water absorption in man and the relationship of the water load in tissues to diuresis' -- subject(s): Diuresis, Water in the body, Neurohypophysis, Blood
What are some of the causes of diuresis?
There are currently 4 kinds of diuresis found within the human body. Some possible causes of the forms of diuresis include being submerged in water, an unknown occurrence of substances found in the kidneys, or by taking a diuretic.
What is the osmotic pressure of pure water?
The osmotic pressure of pure water is 0. The osmotic pressure is relative to pure water, thus semipermeable membrane on both sides pure water does not have any movement of solvent.
What effect would being in a desert without water have on your plasma osmotic concentration?
Being without a source of water causes the body to seek homeostasis. This involves the osmotic pressure between cells to begin drawing water from other parts of your body.
What is so important about the osmotic effect of a solution?
The osmotic effect of a solution is its ability to change the flow of water from itself to another solution that it can access. For instance, if you are injecting a high-osmotic solution directly into the blood stream, you can cause the patient to become dehydrated because the solution will pull the water from the patient's body tissues into the blood stream until it is equalized between the body tissues' osmotic force and the solution's osmotic force. In contrast, if you inject a solution that is too dilute, you can cause cells to rupture as the water from the dilute solution filters into the cells to try to equalize the osmotic forces between the cell's interiors and the solution.
Does pure water exert osmotic pressure?
Pure water exerts osmotic pressure as the tendency of a pure solvent will cause osmotic pressure. This is due to the semi-permeability of the membrane which inhibits the movement of water.
There is no osmotic difference between a shark's fluids and the sea water in which it swims?
The shark is exhibiting osmoregulation. Marine animals must have a similar salt content in their cells to the water they live in. That way, the cells are not prone to either losing or gaining too much water through osmosis.
What is the blood protein plays a role in maintaining osmotic pressure and water balance between blood and tissues are?
Albumin
