First of all, the change in internal conditions is registered by a chemo-receptor, like in the case of excess salt. This receptor in turn releases kinases, which signal the cell to produce a signalling molecule that will affect another cell's receptor or it's own receptor, depending on the circumstances. This chain reaction continues until it reaches a final effector cell which tackles the problem of higher salt concentration, like in this case, vasopressin would be released to dilate the blood vessels so that larger volume of water would flow. This volume is retained by the nephrons in kidney by reabsobing water from the urine formation process. The higher volume of water will dilute the excess salt and homeostasis would be maintained.

What factors contribute to the presence of excess supply and excess demand in the market?

Excess supply in a market occurs when the quantity of a good or service supplied exceeds the quantity demanded at a given price. This can happen due to factors such as overproduction, changes in consumer preferences, or a decrease in demand. On the other hand, excess demand occurs when the quantity demanded exceeds the quantity supplied at a given price, which can be caused by factors such as shortages, sudden increases in demand, or price ceilings.


What determines the intensity of the excess pressure in a water-hammer wave?

The intensity of the excess pressure in a water-hammer wave is determined by factors such as the velocity of the fluid flow, the speed of the valve closure or opening, and the characteristics of the pipe system (e.g., diameter, length, material). Additionally, the presence of any obstructions or changes in the flow direction can also influence the intensity of the excess pressure.


Why in back titration blue to red end point appears?

In back titration, a blue to red end point can appear due to the presence of an indicator that changes color in response to the excess titrant added after reacting with the analyte. The change in color indicates the completion of the reaction between the excess titrant and the analyte, enabling the determination of the analyte's concentration.


What color does Phenolphthalein possess in the presence of excess hydroxide ions?

When excess of hydrogen or hydronium ions are present in the solution , the solution will have pH less than 0. Phenolphthalein possesses dark orange color to the solution having pH less than 0. Hence, phenolphthalein will possess dark orange color in the presence of excess of hydrogen or hydronium ions.

What are the colour changes when titating the lemon juice with the iodine solution and starch?

When titrating lemon juice with iodine solution in the presence of starch, the color changes from yellow to blue-black. Initially, the iodine solution is brown, which indicates the presence of free iodine. As the titration progresses and all the available ascorbic acid in the lemon juice reacts with the iodine, excess iodine will react with the starch, resulting in the blue-black color. This color change signifies the endpoint of the titration.
