What effect would being in a desert without water have on your plasma osmotic concentration?
Wiki User

Being without a source of water causes the body to seek homeostasis. This involves the osmotic pressure between cells to begin drawing water from other parts of your body.

How do osmotic saline laxatives work?
The osmotic saline laxative work by causing an osmotic effect. This osmotic effect takes place primarily within the small intestines. This causes, eventually, a movement of the bowels.
What is the relation of the donnan effect to osmotic pressure on capillary and on pH?
the effect of Donnan effect to osmotic pressure on capillary is that it gives the capillary the ability to *some text missing*
Why polymeric form of storage glucose minimize osmotic effect?
due to insoulbility of polymeric form of sugar in water they reduce the osmotic effect .
What osmotic effect would injecting a patient with a 10 percent saline solution have?
hypertonic effect
What effect does albumin have on blood flow?
albumin increases colloid osmotic pressure
Why tonicity is important?
because it refers to the effect of the solutions osmotic pressure has on water movement across the cell membrane of cells with in the solution. because it refers to the effect of the solutions osmotic pressure has on water movement across the cell membrane of cells with in the solution.
Mechanism of osmotic and heat transfer in vegetable?
i wanted to know the effect of the above question on vegetable
What is the role of NaCl in Nutrient broth?
NaCl is generally added to the nutrient media for maintaining the Osmotic pressure. Maintaining osmotic pressure is important, because, increase or decrease in the osmotic pressure leads to cell burst or death due to the effect of osmosis. So, maintaining the osmotic pressure is done by adding correct amount of NaCl.
What effect does rapid exhalation of CO2 during excerise have on the concentration of H2CO3 in the blood?
During exercise it has no effect. Without the exercise it would lower the CO2 (or H2CO3) levels.
What is so important about the osmotic effect of a solution?
The osmotic effect of a solution is its ability to change the flow of water from itself to another solution that it can access. For instance, if you are injecting a high-osmotic solution directly into the blood stream, you can cause the patient to become dehydrated because the solution will pull the water from the patient's body tissues into the blood stream until it is equalized between the body tissues' osmotic force and the solution's osmotic force. In contrast, if you inject a solution that is too dilute, you can cause cells to rupture as the water from the dilute solution filters into the cells to try to equalize the osmotic forces between the cell's interiors and the solution.
How does electrolytes affect osmosis?
They add more solute particles into the solution and have a greater effect on osmotic pressure.
What effect does the concentration gradient of the interstitial fluid have on the maximum urine concentration?
The urine concentration increased.
