What takes place in the disal convoluted tubule?

if you think about it, the role of the loop of henle is to essentially get as high a concentration of salts in the collecting duct as possible to get concentrated urine because it's trying to get as much water water as possible reabsorbed back into the body. now that we know this we can pretty much work from there. after the fluid has moved through the descending limb (which is water permeable meaning that it loses water through osmosis to the tissue fluid in the medulla) and the ascending limb (which is water impermeable meaning the opposite), the fluid is very high in concentration of salts because salts keep moving into the tubule after the top of the descenting limb. therefore, by the time the fluid gets to the distal convoluted tubule, the urine is low in water potential already. sodium ions move out of the fluid and potassium ions move into the tubule. water also continues to diffuse out of the tubule and also later on in the collecting duct. depending on how hydrated the body is, more and more water is reabsorbed back into the tissue fluid in the medulla before being absorbed by the capillaries and carried away by the blood. this is all done to prevent dehydration.


Do men have longer limbs than women?

Limb length is generally a factor of the height of a person. Normal development dictates that the limb length be proportionate to height. As the average height of men is more than that of women, it can be said that men have longer limbs than women.

Can you grow a bonsai off a limb?

Yes, look up "air Layering" for the method of propagating many varieties from a limb. Roots are grown on the limb, then it is cut from the tree and planted. Many bonsai are started this way.

What does falling limb on georgraphy mean?

In geography, a falling limb refers to the section on a hydrograph where the water discharge is decreasing after reaching its peak flow. This typically occurs after a period of rainfall or snowmelt when the water level in a river or stream starts to drop. Understanding the falling limb is important for predicting flooding patterns and managing water resources.

What is a transradial prosthetic limb?

A transradial prosthetic limb is an artificial limb that is designed to replace a missing arm below the elbow. It is attached to the remaining limb using a socket and can be controlled by the user through various mechanisms like muscle signals or myoelectric sensors. Transradial prosthetic limbs can provide functional use and improved quality of life for individuals with upper limb amputations.


How do you determine the specific gravity of a liquid using hare's apparatus?

As we suck air through common pipe line we could lift the liquid under examination in one limb and water in the other limb. Now measuring the height of columns specific gravity of liquid = h water / h liq.


Is a wet tree limb a conductor of electricity?

Yes it is. Any wet piece of wood can conduct electricity. Since living trees are always wet on the inside, a broken tree limb can conduct electricity, even if it does not seem to be wet on the outside.
