Fluid Balance Explain in detail the fluid compartments of the body‚ including distribution of fluid and electrolytes within each compartment and the movement between compartments. In the average person water constitutes 60% to the total body weight.: 42L in a 70kg individual. 40% is intracellelular fluid‚ while remaining 20% is extracellular. The extracellular fluid can be divided into plasma (from intravascular compartment) and interstitial fluid intracellular fluid (28 L‚ about 35% of lean

Urine Testing Science Research What is urinalysis? It is the physical‚ chemical‚ and microscopic examination of urine. Urine testing is an important tool used for medical testing on patients. It can be useful for providing information on a person’s body. Its checks many things like‚ for diseases‚ sugar‚ pH (acidity)‚ protein‚ and bacteria. Doctors or adults at home use urine dipsticks. They are narrow plastic strips which have several squares of different colors attached to it. Each square

Urine Therapy (Uropathy) - Your Body’s Own Best Medicine‚ A PowerFul Infection Fighter You may think that when it comes to alternative health therapies you’ve heard it all. But there is one natural therapy you’ve probably never heard of ---even though its one of the most powerful‚ most researched and most medically proven natural cures ever discovered. It is used in the manufacture of hormones‚ diuretics‚ and cancer fighting drugs. As urea‚ it is one of the primary ingredients in many face and

A mild amount of protein in the urine could be due to physical exertion‚ pregnancy or a high-protein diet.

other plants surrounding it. Since my dogs urine had such effects on the plant‚ I wondered if my own would provide the same results. But instead of acting like a dog and soiling my own yard‚ I will explore the pros and cons of using human urine as a fertilizer. The first step in finding whether human urine can be used‚ as a fertilizer is understanding how we produce urine itself. In humans‚ soluble wastes are excreted primarily by the urinary system as urine. The urinary system consists of the kidneys

URINE WHAT IS URINE is a liquid by-product of the body secreted by the kidneys through a process called urination(or micturition) and excreted through the urethra. Kidney’s waste from protein metabolism urination - the primary method for excreting water-soluble chemicals from the body. Dark yellow urine is often indicative of dehydration. Yellowing/light orange may be caused by removal of excess B vitamins from the bloodstream. Certain medications such as rifampin and phenazopyridine can

Chloride in Urine in Different Circumstances Aim: To determine the chloride content by titrating mixtures of urine against potassium thiocyanate under in different circumstances. Research Question: How do different conditions of urine samples collected affect its concentration of chloride which is measured by titrating the mixture of urine with potassium thiocyanate until it turns red? Hypothesis: The greater the consumption of food‚ the higher the chloride concentration in urine. This can

(b) Although important‚ fluids are not essential to many living things. (c) A meniscus forms when water particles adhere to the sides of their container. (d) Buoyancy‚ like water pressure‚ acts in all directions. 2. Describe the relationship between mass‚ volume‚ and density of matter. 3. Use the particle theory to explain the differences between

Experiment 3: Fluid Flow Friction and Fitting Loss Objective To determine the pressure or head loss in different diameters pipes‚ joints and valves Theory Pipe flows belong to a broader class of flows‚ called internal flows‚ where the fluid is completely bounded by solid surfaces. In contrast‚ in external flows‚ such as flow over a flat plate or an airplane wing‚ only part of the flow is bounded by a solid surface. The term pipe flow is generally used to describe flow through round pipes

Identify and describe the composition of the fluid compartments within the body Either Intracellular fluid (ICF- 2/3 of the body’s water) or extracellular fluid (ECF -one third of the body’s water). The two main extracellular fluid compartments are the interstitial fluid and the intravascular fluid‚ which is the blood plasma. Other ECF compartments include the lymph and the transcellular fluids such as the synovial ‚ intestinal‚
