Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The concentration of solutes in the urine determines the osmolality or specific gravity of urine. On the other hand, the concentration and volume of urine are regulated by the permeability of the collecting ducts. When the tubules are impermeable to water, the volume is more but the concentration is less, and vice versa.
