How could the change in urine volume with the increase in blood pressure br view as being beneficial to the body?
An increase in blood pressure can lead to increased urine volume as the kidneys work to remove excess fluid and waste products from the blood. This helps to maintain a healthy balance of fluids in the body and can help regulate blood pressure. Additionally, increased urine volume can also help eliminate toxins and maintain electrolyte balance.
Is there a higher volume of urine when dehydrated?
No, when dehydrated, the volume of urine typically decreases. The body conserves water to maintain hydration, leading to more concentrated urine. In contrast, when well-hydrated, the body produces a larger volume of diluted urine.
What happened to the volume of urine as the solute concentration in the interstitial space increased?
As the solute concentration in the interstitial space increases, the volume of urine tends to decrease. This is because the kidneys reabsorb more water from the filtrate to help maintain the body's fluid and solute balance.
Predict what would happen to urine volume if you did not add ADH to the collecting duct?
urine volume would hugely increase ... because the ADH is an anti-urination material.
Why does urine turn clear when consuming alcohol?
Alcohol is a diuretic, meaning it causes the body to produce more urine. This increased urine production can dilute the urine, making it appear clearer. Additionally, alcohol can also lead to dehydration, which can further contribute to clearer urine as the body tries to expel excess water.
How could increased glomerular filtration lead to increased urine output?
Increased glomerular filtration can lead to increased urine output by allowing more fluid and waste to be filtered out of the blood by the kidneys. This results in a greater volume of urine being produced as the excess fluid and waste are eliminated from the body more efficiently.
Why is less urine formed when the body loses a large amount of blood?
The body attempts to conserve fluid under these conditions. With blood loss, there is less volume in the circulatory system. Therefore, increased release of anitdiuretic hormone (ADH) will occur, causing less urine to be formed, and allowing the body to conserve needed fluids. The body has homeostatic sensors, which provide feedback to the brain, regarding volume of fluid in the circulatory system. When the volume is low, ADH (anti-diuretic hormone) is released, minimizing or stopping urine output in order that needed blood volume is conserved.

What are the effects of hyper secretion of ADH in urine quantity and component?
ADH is short for Anti Diuretic Hormone and it prevents excess water loss. As such, a hyper-secretion of ADH will result in less urine by volume, and the urine will have a lower concentration of water. Conversely, it will have a higher concentration of solutes (Sodium, Potassium, Urea, etc.)
How does heat effect urine?
Urine doesn't create or excrete heat. It dissipates heat and it would be the value of the temperature and the volume of the urine probably expressed in "calories" of heat energy. For humans the urine exits the body at about 99 degrees, but the volume would be a variable.
How does the volume of urine differ from the measured baseline volume?
The volume of urine refers to the total amount of urine produced by the body, while the baseline volume refers to the average amount of urine produced over a specific timeframe. Differences in volume can occur due to factors such as hydration status, medications, and underlying health conditions.
Does severe dehydration cause urine volume to decrease?
Yes, severe dehydration causes urine volume to decrease. Your body will conserve water to maintain homeostasis.
Why does the volume and composition of urine change after strenuous exercise?
There was a marked fall in the urine volume after exercise which could not be overcome by drinking small quantities of water at frequent intervals. A considerable increase in the excretion of acids and conservation of base were demonstrated by the rapid increase in the hydrogen ion concentration, titrat-able acidity, ammonia and ratio of ammonia to total nitrogen of the urine.
