They some what lead to the collecting ducts which ducks that collect.
What is urine and what are the component of a normal urine?
- Approx. 95% of the volume of normal urine is due to water.
- The other 5% consists of solutes (chemicals that are dissolved in the water).
Some of these solutes are the results of normal biochemical activity within the cells of the body. Other solutes may be due to chemicals that originated outside of the body, such as pharmaceutical drugs.
Is the amount of urine produced more or less on a hot day compare to a cold day?
Urination serves two functions. One is to rid the body of certain unneeded minerals, and the other is to regulate the amount of water in the blood. On a hot day, water will be lost through sweat, and so the body will want to keep as much water as possible, so there will be less urine produced. On a cold day, the body will have plenty of water, so more urine will be produced to balance this out.
If you notice your kid smells of pee would you tell him?
Yes, any mother or father would tell a child they smell of pee and have the child bathe.
Where does poo go after you poop in the toliet?
Every community has a Waste Water Treatment plant/facility. When you flush a toilet, waste goes through pipes in the house. Those pipes lead to either city sewer pipes, or if not hooked to the city, to a private septic tank on each person's property. The waste plant collects sewer water from rain runoff and from industries too. The waste water is treated, and returned as pure water plus the chemicals used to make it pure(r). We again use that purified water for bathing, drinking, cooking, washing clothes, etc. If in a septic tank, chemicals can be added to break down the waste but eventually, the tank needs emptied. The home owner hires a waste company to pump out the septic tank, and use of the toilet begins again.
What happiness if you drink your own pee?
This is a very odd question. If you drink your pee the chances are that you are going to throw up. If you drink your pee twice ( two bottles) you most likely will have a chance of dying because of all the bacteria....so please don't.
Briefly describe how oxygen arrives at the heart and then reaches the cells in your kidneys?
It will be taken in when you breathe and then goes into your lungs. From there the blood will carry it to the various parts of the body.
Is the urethra the tube that leads from the bladder to the small intestine?
Oh my gosh, no! The urethra is a tube in mammals that leads from the urinary bladder to the outside world. For females, it is relatively short and for males it is longer. In females it leads to a small opening just in front of the vagina. In males it leads all the way to the tip of the penis.
The urethra is part of the urinary system, and the small intestine is part of the digestive system. Let's hope that the two never meet. Because if your urethra went into your small intestine, it would be a medical emergency that would require immediate surgery!
You are 12 days late and you have to pee all the time?
When this first happened to me, during my second pregnancy, I was told at first by the doctor that it was normal. However, I found out later that this means that you probably have ghonnorhea, and your child will be born without genitals. It's a terrible affliction. Get an abortion NOW.

Can you pee in the back of your classroom?
yes if you really feel the need to i guess you could, but i wouldn't recomend it
when doing so, always remember to use lube, never force it will lead to tearing, and its not pretty, sanatizing is important, and make sure she is relaxed, there will be urine, so make sure that you are in a place easy to clean, and start with small, smooth, tapered objects, i started with a lot of small tapered paintbrushes, leading up to a taper candle, then i got a vibrator that has a fairly small tip, but gets quite wide, if this is meant for intercourse purposes, always restretch before trying to insert the penis, because it is quite dfficult because it isn't as stiff and won't want to copperate, I've seen a girl use a shoe horn, but found it unnecessary if warmed up first, just take it slow and careful, hope that helps, and enjoy!

What does it mean to have extra fluid in one of the tubes leading from you kidney to your bladder?
I'm thinking you must be talking about a condition called hydroureter, meaning distention of the ureter with fluid. This is caused by an obstruction of the ureter (the duct between the kidney and the bladder). Several things can cause this obstruction. The most common is kidney stones. These accretions of salts form in the kidney. When the body tries to pass them, they must go through the ureter, which is very narrow, not made for passing solids. So they get stuck, and fluid (urine) builds up behind the obstruction, distending the ureter like a balloon. Once the stone passes and the obstruction is relieved, the ureter returns to normal size. Hydroureter can be dangerous in that excessive back pressure can damage the kidney, which can occur if the obstruction persists.
