It tries really really hard! Nah, i think it depends on how much fluids you have in your system, if your urine is yellow then it has a higher urea concentration. If its clear, a lower urea concentration

Different animals have different mechanisms to produce urine concentration that is most energetically favorable according to animals surrounding environment.

What is the safe urinary creatinine value?
Urine is supposed to have creatinine in it. It's a waste product. The more creatinine it has, the more concentrated it is. It's not unsafe necessarily to have really concentrated urine, but it does put you at greater risk for kidney stones and UTIs.
What is the roleof ADH in thebody's waterbalance?
ADH causes the body (kidney) to conserve water and produce more concentrated urine

Why a person who has had a kidney stone should drink large amounts of water to prevent another kidney stone forming?
There are higher chances of getting small crystal precipitated out of concentrated urine. You drink that extra water and urine will have less solutes per unit volume. because you will get more quantity of the diluted urine. So chances of kidney stone formation will be less.
Does ADH favor the formation of dilute or concentrated urine?
ADH causes an increase in water reabsorption in the kidneys. Thus, by absorbing more water, the urine becomes MORE concentrated (more compounds in less water = more concentrated)
Can poor mental health cause kidney stone formation?
According to a study conducted by University of Maryland (link below), people who report having stress or stressful experiences in life were more likely to have kidney stones. Experts hypothesize that this may be due to vasopressin that is released when you experience stress. This hormone can make chemicals in urine more concentrated, which can cause kidney stones.
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.
Is ADH a steroid or non steroid?
It is a steroid. It is an antidiuretic hormone increases the permeability of the distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct of the kidney nephron resulting in less water in the urine. The urine becomes more concentrated as water is conserved.
How many filters in the kidney what is there function?
There are millions of filters in the kidney, called 'nephrons'. Their job is to filter what will become urine, and is a part of the body's water regulation system. If you are sweating lots from exercise, and your body needs water, your nephrons will reduce the amount of water leaving the body in your urine. When this happens, your urine should be more concentrated, and will be a yellow colour. When you have had lots of water, you urinate more to get rid of the water, as your kidney is regulation the water to keep it at a steady level.
Why is the first urine of the day most concentrated?
The color of urine is determined on how concentrated the urine is. It's from all of the toxins being excreted. In the morning it's a fasting urine and you haven't drank fluids all night. So it's concentrated and dark yellow. During the day, you drink and dilute the urine so there more water in the urine, less concentrated and lighter in color
Why is more concentrated yellowish urine excreted in summers?
Typically, summer temperatures cause people to become dehydrated. Dehydrated people produce concentrated urine.
