Your iPhone can print from print-enabled apps, photos, websites and emails via iPrint.
First you will need an Airprint enabled printer like the Canon Pixma MG5320 or HP Laserjet Pro P1102w.
Then, open an application like Safari, Mail and Photos that support Airprint. Select the content that you want to print and choose the option to print. Select your printer and press Print. Never do that. It can kill you

What does the mechanism of the medullary pressure of the osmotic gradient depend on?
The mechanism of the medullary pressure of the osmotic gradient depends on the differential permeability of the ascending and descending limbs of the loop of Henle to solutes like sodium and urea. This causes the accumulation of solutes in the medulla, creating an osmotic gradient that facilitates water reabsorption.
What establishes the medullary osmotic gradient?
The loop of Henle is primarily responsible for establishing the medullary osmotic gradient in the kidney. This gradient is maintained by the countercurrent mechanism, where solute concentration increases towards the renal medulla, allowing for water reabsorption by osmosis. The loop of Henle actively transports sodium and solutes to create this gradient, essential for urine concentration and water conservation.
The mechanism that establishes the medullary osmotic gradient depends most on the permeability properties of the?
The mechanism that establishes the medullary osmotic gradient depends most on the permeability properties of the loop of Henle, particularly the descending limb. Water is reabsorbed passively in response to the increasing osmolarity of the interstitial fluid created by the active transport of solutes out of the ascending limb.
Is osmotic a diuretic?
Osmotic diuretics are a type of diuretic not a specific drug. Osmotic diuretics work by increasing blood flow to the kidneys and preventing the tubes in the kidneys from making such concentrated urine so that there is no gradient for water to be reabsorbed so you will pee all that water out. An example of an osmotic diuretic is mannitol.
What factor limits the maximum possible urine concentration?
The maximum urine concentration is limited by the osmotic gradient between the kidney tubules and the surrounding interstitium. The ability to concentrate urine depends on the proper functioning of the kidney's loop of Henle and collecting ducts to establish and maintain this osmotic gradient. Additionally, factors such as hydration status and certain medical conditions can also affect the maximum urine concentration.
How does osmotic gradient affect urine?
Osmotic gradient affects urine concentration by influencing the flow of water across the walls of the nephron. A higher osmotic gradient in the renal medulla leads to increased reabsorption of water from the collecting ducts, resulting in more concentrated urine. Conversely, a lower osmotic gradient leads to less water reabsorption and more diluted urine.
Difference between osmotic diuresis and water diuresis?
Osmotic Diuresis Water diuresis *High amount of H2O reabsoebed in *Normal absorption. PCT. *A lot of solutes are lost. *loss of solute amount is less. *Very high amounts of urine are *Amounts of urine produced are less produced. than that in osmotic diuresis. *Low medullary osmolality. *High medullary osmolality. *Normal *The limiting concentration gradient *The limiting gradient is not reached. for Na is reached at PCT. *Hyponatremia may occur. *Takes more time to get hyponatremia.
The osmotic gradient ____ as it moves deeper into the medulla?
Increases
Where is osmolarity greatest in kidney?
Osmolarity is greatest in the innermost portion of the medulla near the renal pelvis due to the osmotic gradient. As one goes deeper into the renal medulla, the osmotic gradient increase. The osmolarity varies from 300 mOsm at the edge of the medulla to the innermost at approximately 1200-1400 mOsm. Think of the movie, Silence of the Lamb, when Anthony Hopkins eats that kidney, as he eat closer and closer to the kidney, it get salter. The medullary osmotic gradient is used for water reabsorption in the collecting duct, when ADH is present, thus increasing blood volume and result in increasing blood pressure.
True or false Obligatory water reabsorption involves the movement of water along an osmotic gradient?
True. Obligatory water reabsorption in the kidneys involves the passive movement of water along an osmotic gradient, created by the active reabsorption of solutes like sodium. This process occurs mainly in the proximal convoluted tubule and the descending limb of the loop of Henle.
What is the main factor that creates the high osmotic gradient between the cortex and medulla?
A high osmotic gradient between the cortex and the medulla is caused by the running, walking, or jumping of a human person. These simple actions cause the osmotic gradient to rise significantly.
Why does water follow sodium and not potassium in the human body particularly in the kidney nephrons?
Water follows sodium because of the osmotic gradient created by the reabsorption of sodium in the nephrons. Sodium is actively transported out of the nephron, creating a concentration gradient that drives the passive reabsorption of water. Potassium is reabsorbed in a different segment of the nephron and does not create the same osmotic force to drive water reabsorption.
