Whatr is a nephron?
== == A nephron is where filtration of blood will occur and it is also the million miscroscopic devices inside the kidney
The energy absorbed by one gram of ice as it melts as known as the .for water?
Heat of Fusion
How do nephrons in the kidney get damaged?
If your blood pressure is too high, as in the case of someone with hypertension, the glomerulus of the nephron can burst rendering that nephron useless. Without a glomerulus, the nephron cannot achieve pressure filtration, which is one of the main functions of the kidney.
How do the minerals are absorbed and reach to all parts of the plants?
Stem is the only one that will transport the water,food,mineral salts and sugar(food) to all parts of the plant. Because of stems,the water and mineral salts get to the leaves and other parts of a plant.
What one nutrient is not absorbed from the digestive system?
The only nutrient that can't be absorbed is ......... Vitamin B12.
Is the urethra part of a nephron?
Urethra is not a part of nephron. You have about one million nephrons in each kidney and you have only one urethra.
What is the function and location of the nephrons?
The nephrons are found in the kidneys (about 1 million in each kidney). These structures are responsible for filtering the blood and then reabsorbing wanted substances further down the nephron. Blood reaches the top of the nephron (called the glomerulus), and the smaller molecules, such as glucose, water, urea and ions diffuse across the glomerular membrane. Further down the nephron, at the convoluted tubules, the glucose and some of the water and ions are reabsorbed back into the bloodstream, either by diffusion or by active transport, if the substances need to go against a concentration gradient. What's left in the nephron is a mixture of excess water and ions, as well as the toxin urea. These pass out of the nephron and through the ureters into the bladder, as urine.
What is the structural unit of the kidney?
Nephron is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephron It is composed of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule. The renal corpuscle consists of a glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule. It is the nephron's initial filtering component. The components of the renal tubule are the proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle and the distal convoluted tubule.

What is the energy absorbed by one gram of water as it changes from its liquid phase into water vapor known as?
The heat of vaporization. :D
Is the collecting duct in the nephron a tube?
Yes, a very small one.
How do currents move water from one location to another?
Currents are a "flow" of water from one place to another.
How much water can the body absorb while drinking for one hour?
It depends on the temperature of the water. Warm or hot water will be absorbed faster than cool or cold water.
What a diverting valve?
Diverts water from one location to anoder
Can grow room charcoal air filter be cleaned?
No, because the charcoal has absorbed the impurities in the air or water. What has been absorbed can't be cleaned out. Throw it away a buy a new one.
