(2 points)- If a human patient has a truncated (abnormally short) collecting duct, do you expect the urine be more concentrated or diluted? Why? 5. (2 point)- Where is the hormone ADHI released? Where and what is the response it induces? 6. (2 points)- The side effect of drug X is to activate osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus. Thus, do patients taking drug X have a more concentrated or diluted urine soon after taking the medication? Explain whyExplanation / Answer
Lowest and highest concentration of nitrogenous wastes based on water requirement are:
Ammonia require more amount of water
Urea require less water
Uric acid require least water
In mammals, concentration of urine is achieved by removing excess of water.
In reabsorption, water and solutes are moved back to plasma.
In our body most of the reabsorption of water and solutes occur in nephrons.
