dwq
What is the function of micro villi in the kidney?
To increase the surface area of the tubule. It creates a larger surface area for re-absorption to occur, and thus more diffusion can occur at once.
Why is it so important that a kidney patient controls their diet?
the kidney cleans your blood and gets rid of the junk in it. if you eat junk all the time then you could overwhelm your kidney and end up in real trouble
Diffusion is important in body fluids because it tends to?
It tends to eliminate local concentration gradients.
Which organs in the digestive system lie outside the digestive tube but are important in the digestive process?
liver kidney and gall bladder
What is the organ where diffusion of water occurs?
The kidney
What is the physical principle upon which kidney dialysis is based on?
Diffusion
What are examples of diffusion in the human body?
Diffusion occurs in the human body in a variety of ways. Examples of diffusion are through respiration, ion movement and the diffusion of nutrients in the kidney and small intestine.
In osmosis in the kidney of a mammal what substance is involved?
osmosis is always the diffusion of water
How is diffusion important in our living systems?
diffusion is important to living system in a way that in can help in reproduction of living system

Why diffusion is an important process to your body?
Diffusion is an important process to your body because molecules enter your body cells and waste products are removed.
Why is it important to understand diffusion in the context of cells?

Where within the body does pressure affect diffusion of a substance?
Pressure increases the rate of diffusion. As the pressure on the membrane increase, attempts to enter the lower concentration increase, speeding the diffusion rate.
Why are the processes of diffusion and osmosis are important?
The processes of diffusion and osmosis are important for survival because important biological processes depend on them. For example, water is transported into and out of cells through osmosis instead of active transport.
What is an important organ for maintaining homeostasis?
Kidney
