The cells of the brain's hypothalamus, which monitor blood salts, stimulate the pituitary gland to release antidiuretic hormone (ADH) whenever the salts are too concentrated or the blood volume or blood pressure is too low.

Even though the cocentration of salt is higher in some gland-cells than in blood-cells the gland-cells can still take salt out of blood-cells this is an example of?
active transport
What is the job of kidneys?
the job of the kidneys is to filter the blood. it also regulates the salt concentration in your blood.
What would happen to human blood if put in salt water?
If human blood is put in salt water, the water molecules in the human blood will lead to the lower concentration of water molecules. This process is called diffusion- water molecules going from high concentration to low concentration.
what organ keeps the right amount of salt and acid in the body by filtering the blood?
Pituitary gland
Which body part removes salt in form of sweat?
skin
What would happen if you put red blood cells into a salty?
Provided the concentration of salt is higher than the salt concentration in the red blood cell, the red blood cell, through the process of osmosis and the principal of diffusion, will shrink, as water flows from within the red blood cell to the solution
What would happen if you put red blood cells into a salty solution?
Provided the concentration of salt is higher than the salt concentration in the red blood cell, the red blood cell, through the process of osmosis and the principal of diffusion, will shrink, as water flows from within the red blood cell to the solution
What is the concentration of red blood cells in blood?
In terms of the salt concentration OUTSIDE the cell (in the medium), 0.15M NaCl would retain the normal condition of the red blood cell. Hope you liked it! :D
What effect does salt intake have upon urine salt concentration and volume?
The renal system (kidneys) is the main regulator of both blood volume and blood salt concentration, but the two factors are regulated somewhat independently of each other as both the volume of urine produced and it's salt concentration vary with their own hormone system.
What is the salt concentration in dirty water?
there is no salt concentration.
What would happen if you put red cells into a salty solutions?
Provided the concentration of salt is higher than the salt concentration in the red blood cell, the red blood cell, through the process of osmosis and the principal of diffusion, will shrink, as water flows from within the red blood cell to the solution
What will happen if a blood cell is placed in a hypertonic salt solution?
A hypertonic solution is a solution that has a high concentration of solute, in this case the solute being salt. When a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution, since the salt concentration is higher in the outside of the cell, the water concentration is lower there as well. Therefore, through the process of osmosis, the water diffuses from the inside of the cell to the outside of the cell.
