When does glucose concentration in urine become zero?
The normal glucose concentration in urine ranges from 0 to 15 mg/dL. The glucose concentration in urine becomes zero when no glucose has spilled over into the urine.
What happens to the concentration of glucose in urine as the number of glucose carriers increase?
concentration of glucose in the urine decreases.
What causes loss of glucose in the urine?
Insulin affects the concentration of glucose in the urine.
Why is there no glucose in urine?
All of the glucose are reabsorbed from the Proximal convoluted tubule into the surrounding capillaries,so there is no no glucose in urine.
Protein is a normal constituent of urine but glucose is not?
probably not because glucose is being used in your body for movement etc. so it's not going out
What processes prevent glucose from being excreted in the urine?
Ultrafiltaration i think dont know how its spelled
Why isn't glucose normally found in urine?
Glucose is not in Urine because the body transforms all the extra glucose into fat and stores in the the body instead of excreting it with urine. Glucose can be seen in urine in uncontrolled diabetes millitus, when the blood glucose level is higher than the kidneys threshold of glucose reabsorbtion, then the extra glucose gets excreted with urine instead of getting reabsorbed by the kidneys.
Why urine doesn't normally contain glucose?
Glucose is too valuable to be lost in the urine, so it is selectively reabsorbed by active transport in the nephrons. There should be no glucose whatsoever in urine. Any trace of it is a possible sign of diabetes.
What hormone causes loss of glucose in the urine?
Glucose in urine is a worrying sign, as it is a key symptom of diabetes. A lack of the hormone insulin would be responsible.
Is glucose secreted in urine?
Yes
What prevents urine leaving the bladder?
i think that the
Why sugar does not appear normally in urine?
The nephrons (filtering units in the kidney) actively reabsorb glucose from the urine. Up until a blood sugar of about 200, there should normally be no glucose found in the urine. Glucose in the urine (also called glycosuria), can be seen in diabetes and other conditions that cause an increased blood glucose. There are also some conditions that prevent the nephron from reabsorbing glucose filtered in the kidney.
