Agent that promotes secretion of urine?

DIURETICS


Diuretics are administered to increase urine secretion?

Yes.


Neurohypophyseal secretion of stimulates formation of concentrated urine?

Neurohypophyseal secretion of antidiuretic hormone or ADH stimulates the formation of concentrated urine. This hormone is also known as argipressin.


What are the 3 steps for urine formation?

Filtration As blood courses through the glomeruli, much of its fluid, containing both useful chemicals and dissolved waste materials, soaks out of the blood through the membranes (by osmosis and diffusion) where it is filtered and then flows into the Bowman's capsule. This process is called glomerular filtration Reabsorption by definition, is the movement of substances out of the renal tubules back into the blood capillaries located around the tubules (called the peritubular copillaries). Substances reabsorbed are water, glucose and other nutrients, and sodium (Na+) and other ions Secretion In this respect, secretion is reabsorption in reverse. Whereas reabsorption moves substances out of the tubules and into the blood, secretion moves substances out of the blood and into the tubules where they mix with the water and other wastes and are converted into urine.


What is the medical term meaning diminished or lack of urine production or secretion?

Diminished or scant urine production is oliguria. Anuria is absent urine production.


What happens during the process of secretion?

Chemicals get secreted from the blood, and into the urine and out of the body.


What are the four main physiological processes that contribute to urine formation?

Filtration of blood, re-absorption, secretion of substances, concentration of urine


What is the mechanism of urine formation?

The mechanism of urine formation takes place by three steps. they are glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption and tubular secretion.


Does ADH promote secretion of sodium ions?

No! it doesn't. It just promotes your free water reabsorption in the distal tubules of the kidney. It increases the amount of aquaporines in the cell membrane, causing an influx of water in the medulla of the kidney. Sodium concentration of the urine will be higher because the urine is more concentrated. However, there isn't more sodium excreted.


What are the effects of hyper secretion of ADH in urine quantity and component?

ADH is short for Anti Diuretic Hormone and it prevents excess water loss. As such, a hyper-secretion of ADH will result in less urine by volume, and the urine will have a lower concentration of water. Conversely, it will have a higher concentration of solutes (Sodium, Potassium, Urea, etc.)


How can sodium losses in the urine during water-induced diuresis be replaced?

-Increase in alderstone secretion -Decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) -Increase in ADH (antidiuretic hormone) secretion -Decrease in secretion of atrial natriuretic peptide


What would happen to urine pH if you increased secretion of hydrogen?

it would become more acidic
