Chapter 6 Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) Example One Monday morning1 ‚ Peter‚ instead of attending class‚ was mulling over his four job offers. His offers came from Acme Manufacturing (A)‚ Bankers Bank (B)‚ Creative Consulting (C)‚ and Dynamic Decision Making (D). He knew that factors such as location‚ salary‚ job content‚ and long-term prospects were important to him‚ but he wanted some way to formalize the relative importance‚ and some way to evaluate each job offer. Luckily‚ he attended

Dehydrogenase (ADH) Reaction Bich 413 section 508 Abstract The Alcohol Dehydrogenase Reaction in Oxidized Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide. The oxidation-reduction of Nicotinamide adenine Dinucleotides (NADH) are very Important reaction in the biological system. When the Oxidized Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) is react with a alcohol‚ catalyze by Alcohol Dehydrogenase (ADH)‚ the result products are NADH‚ H+‚ and aldehyde.In the biological system‚ the ADH reaction can go

The walls of duct in the kidney respond to ADH and the cells in the walls have membrane-bound receptors for ADH‚ to which the ADH binds to these receptors and causes a chain of enzyme-controlled reactions in the cell. The completion of these reactions is inserting vesicles containing water-permeable channels (aquaporin’s) into the cell surface membrane‚ thus making walls more permeable to water. When ADH is increased in the blood flow‚ more water-permeable channels are inserted

Urine production If body fluids are hypo osmolar‚ then kidney will produces hypo osmolar urine. (Dilute urine) If body fluids are hyper osmolar (dehydration) then kidney produces hyperosmolar urine. (concentrated urine) In the renal cortex the osmolarity of interstitial fluid is 300mOs/L going to 1200mOs/L in the papilla. From the cortex to the papilla there is an increasing hyper osmolarity of the interstitial fluid. Cortico papillary osmolarity gradient. Urine with osmolarity more than 300mOs/l

Abstract: The experiment was done to demonstrate the effect of ADH on the volume and concentration of urine in order to demonstrate the control of ADH over blood plasma osmolarity. Since non-invasive methods were preferred the volume and concentration of urine was used in place of drawing blood. The results that we our anticipating are that ADH levels in the group of subjects that ingested the 6 gm. Of NaCl would increase over time in response to the increased osmolarity of the blood from all

hyponatremia results from the intake (either oral or intravenous) and subsequent retention of water [1]. A water load will‚ in normal subjects‚ be rapidly excreted as the dilutional fall in plasma osmolality suppresses the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH)‚ thereby allowing the excretion of a dilute urine. The maximum rate of water excretion on a regular diet is over 10 liters per day‚ thereby providing an enormous range of protection against the development of hyponatremia. Some patients with primary

Being the most abundant and important compound to life‚ living organisms would not exist without water. Within the human body the majority of biological reactions require water to take place. Although it is possible for human survival without nutrients for up to several weeks‚ without water humans would die in a matter of days. In the human body‚ water makes up 60-70% of adult body weight. At cellular level water makes up between 70-95% of the mass of a cell. The amount of water in the human body
