any regulatory mechanisms‚ what effect do you think an increase in blood pressure would have on glomerular filtration rate? It would increase the glomerular filtration rate. The following questions refer to Activity 3: Exploring Intrinsic Controls: Renal Autoregulation. 7. What was the glomerular filtration rate at 80 mm Hg beaker pressure‚ 0.55 mm afferent radius‚ and 0.45 mm efferent radius? 129.61 8. With the beaker pressure increased to 85 mm Hg‚ at what afferent radius was the glomerular

Urine Specific Gravity Each day an adult excretes between 800ml and 2000mL of urine. This amount varies depending on various conditions that can influence fluid loss and fluid intake. For example‚ the loss of fluid through heavy sweating in hot weather reduces urine amounts. The minimum volume of urine needed to remove body wastes from an adult is about 500mL/day. The specific gravity of urine can be an indicator of disease or disruption in normal metabolism. As you recall from our earlier discussions

What is the best possible set of conditions for the maximum production of ATP? Nathaniel Redwine 9-24-14 590550535305001st Introduction The process of photosynthesis occurs when six carbon dioxide molecules (CO2)‚ six water molecules (H2O)‚ and light energy are added together and result in glucose (C6H12O6) and six oxygen (O2) molecules. There are two stages to this process; light reactions and dark reactions. Light reactions start with chloroplast which absorbs the light. Inside the chloroplast

URINALYSIS 1. What are the possible explanations for the abnormal findings seen in Unknown A? Sample A had large ketones and a mild amount of protein. It also tested positive for a notable amount of blood but it fell within normal limits. There are several scenarios that might explain these results. As for the ketones‚ the patient could have Diabetes Mellitus‚ they could be suffering from starvation or they could be on a low carbohydrate or very high-fat diet. A mild amount of protein in the urine could

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

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
