Does blood regulate urine production?
the kidneys regulate urine production by monitoring blood levels of water and electrolytes (amoung many other things) in the plasma
Which pair of organs filters waste products and excess water from the blood?
The kidneys. And, technically, they filter blood plasma and produce urine.
Which stage of urine formation does blood plasma get pushed into nephron?
The blood pressure in these capillaries is relatively high, so pressure filtration occurs. The blood's plasma and small waste materials and chemicals (the contents of the closet) are pushed out of the blood into the nephron, leaving behind larger proteins, nutrients, and blood cells.
What is considered to be neutral on the pH scale urine pure water blood plasma cytoplasm or interstitial fluid?
pure water is neutral with a pH of 7
What makes urine your body or your blood?
Answer: Your blood.
WhaT is the difference between filtrate and urine?
The main difference between filtrate and urine is the chemical composition of the two. Filtrate has almost all the substance that blood plasma has except blood proteins while urine only contains waste substances.

Is blood plasma acidic?
It could be. and lead to urine excretion

Is urine always hyper tonic to the blood plasma?
It depends. If the body is dehydrated, it will produce highly concentrated (hypertonic) urine in order to conserve water from the blood stream. If your blood is hypotonic (contains excess water), then the kidneys will release hypotonic urine, to reduce the amount of water in the blood. Therefore, if you are dehydrated, the urine is considered hypertonic to the blood. If not, the urine is hypotonic to the blood.
Define the urine composition?
give detail of urine composition?
What do Electrolyte tests look at?
Electrolyte tests are typically conducted on blood plasma or serum, urine, and diarrheal fluids
Which two substances in the plasma are not in the urine of a healthy person?
Plasma proteins and red blood cells are not excreted in urine because they remain in the blood when it is filtered through the kidneys and into the ureters. They are too big to be filtered. Most other substances present in blood are also present in urine since the kidneys filter out poisonous substances as well as substances that are present in excess such as salt and water.
How is the mineral content of the body measured?
The mineral content of the body may be measured by testing samples of blood plasma, red blood cells, or urine.
How is porphyria diagnosed?
Urine test, blood plasma tests, biochemical tests to determine type of porphyria, enzyme test.
Which pair of organs filters waste products and excess water from the blood?
The kidneys. And, technically, they filter blood plasma and produce urine.
What measures th kidney's ability to concentrate of dilute urine in relation to plasma?
It is urine's specific gravity that measures the kidney's ability to concentrate or dilute urine in relation to plasma.
