Question:
What is an explanation for the difference in color between Darlene's and Marcus's urine?
Answer:
Darlene's urine is darker than Marcu's, meaning she probably consumes less water and has retained more
waste. Darlene's urine shows signs of dehydration. Marcus's urine shows that he is drinking enough water.
Question:
What is an explanation for the difference in cloudiness between Darlene's and Marcus's urine?
Answer:
Darlene's urine is clear and doesn't show the presence of particles such as bacteria, mucus, or crystals.
Marcus's urine is cloudy, which means that he probably has the presence o f suspended/floating particles.
Question:
What is an explanation for blood in the urine?
Answer:
Blood in the urine (hematuria) may be present due to kidney diseases, infections, medications, and sexual
activity. In the scenario, Marcus's results are positive for nitrate, which suggests urinary tract infection and it is
likely the cause of hematuria as well.
Question:
Why is a urinalysis an important tool in a routine physical?
Answer:
Urinalysis is extremely important to monitor overall health, it helps to identify diseases and infections. Also, it is
often used to monitor the treatment of medical conditions such as hypertension and diabetes.
Question:
What condition would explain the each patient's results?
Answer:
Overall, Darlene's urine results show normal conditions, she may need to consume more water and liquids
since her urine was a little darker. On the other hand, Marcus showed signs of infection due to
nitrates/hematuria presence and cloudy urine.
Question:
What is diabetes? How are type 1 and type 2 different?
Answer:
Diabetes is a disease in which the body doesn't have the ability to respond or produce insulin. This dysfunction
can lead to elevated levels of glucose in the urine/blood. The difference between Diabetes Type 1 and
Diabetes Type 2 is that Type 1 diabetes is hereditary, usually diagnosed early stages of life. Type 2 diabetes is
diagnosed later in life, and may be caused by poor diet and lifestyle conditions, (Ireland, 2017, p. 399).

TOPIC: "Human Urinary System"
PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS 1 AND 2. THANK YOU!
1. Why are females more likely to contract bladder infections than males? Discuss the anatomical differences between the females and males, which may account for the prior being more at risk of urinary tract infections.
2. Generally, what types of molecules and in which direction (from blood to tubules or tubules to blood) do molecules move during each of the three processes involved in urine formation:
✓ glomerular filtration
✓ tubular reabsorption
✓ tubular secretion

"This week I reviewed quite a bit about what I’ve previously learned about the kidneys and urine production. Urine is quite interesting to me, since it’s such a quality indicator of our health. I learned about some new testing that I hadn’t heard of before this week.
I’m familiar with blood urea nitrogen (BUN) tests, which test the levels of urea in the blood, thus testing the function of the kidneys. I’m also familiar with the common urine test, as I had quite a few during my pregnancy! I also was aware that one could have a cystoscopy, which is a visual exploration of the urethra and the bladder via an endoscope.
I didn’t know about is the creatinine clearance test, which tests the functioning of the glomeruli in filtering out…
