What are glucose tests used for?
Glucose tests are used to determine the concentration of glucose in blood, urine, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and other body fluids.
Insulin causes a a decrease in the concentration of blood glucose b an increase in the concentration of blood glucose?
A. A decrease in glucose. Unless your body is as strange as mine. I'm trying to figure out why my glucose increases when I increase my insulin.
Diffusion is important in body fluids because it tends to?
It tends to eliminate local concentration gradients.
How would you determine the best concentration of solutes to give a patient in need of fluids before you introduced the fluids into the patients body?
water or introduced oral intake
What is a solution called when it has a lesser concentration of particles?
A solution with the same solute concentration as another (e.g. human body fluids) is called isotonic.
What are glucose tests used for?
Glucose tests are used to determine the concentration of glucose in blood, urine, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and other body fluids.
How can glucose affect the pH of the body fluids?
During anaerobic respiration, you get lactic acid in your body. Lactic acid being acid it decreases the pH of your body. After biological oxidation of glucose you get carbon bi oxide. This after dissolution gives you acid in your body.
What hormone decreases blood glucose levels by transporting glucose into body cells?
insulin
How does a common shore crab adjust the concentration of its body fluids?
Crabs like other crustacians are isotonic to marine environment ,also called osmoconformers, theydont adjust concentration of body fluids .
Which organs help regulate calcium concentration in body fluids?
Thyroid
Insulin causes a a decrease in the concentration of blood glucose b an increase in the concentration of blood glucose?
A. A decrease in glucose. Unless your body is as strange as mine. I'm trying to figure out why my glucose increases when I increase my insulin.
The process where blood moves throughout the body?
As blood moves through the body, the concentration of oxygen decreases as the concentration of carbon dioxide increases in the body and the concentration of glucose in the blood also decreased. This is because body cells require glucose and oxygen for respiration/to produce energy, whilst carbon dioxide is a waste product of repiration thus the amount of carbon dioxide will increase. As it moves past/through the intestines, the concentration of glucose, lipids and ions increase as the small intestines reabsorbs food. As blood moves through the kidneys, the concentration of urea drops significantly however the concentration of dissolved ions may differ depending on what the body needs to retain. As blood moves through the liver, amino acids -> ammonia -> urea.And as it enters the left side of the heart, it has low concentration of oxyden and high concentration of carbon dioxide. As it moves out from the left side of the heart, it is oxygenated and has less concentration of carbon dioxide.
What are marine animals that have body fluids with a solute concentration equal to that of the surrounding seawater?
Osmoconformers
What suppresses adh production?
Low concentration of water in body fluids suppresses ADH.
What is The concetration of glucose in intracellular fluid?
The concentration of glucose in intracellular fluid is very low. Glucose is typically converted to glycogen within the body's cells.
What transports form of cabohydrates?
Carbohydrates are transported throughout the body in the form of glucose. Glucose is carried in the blood by two main methods:Simple Diffusion: This is when glucose molecules move along their concentration gradient meaning they move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration.Active Transport: This is when glucose is actively transported across the cell membrane from areas of low concentration to areas of high concentration with the help of special proteins called transporters.These two methods of glucose transportation are essential for the body to maintain its proper functioning as glucose is the primary source of energy for all cells in the body.
Diffusion is important in body fluids because it tends to?
It tends to eliminate local concentration gradients.
