The breakdown of nucleic acids produces very small molecules of uric acid. Extremely high levels of uric acid built up in the joints indicate that there is something wrong with the individual's kidneys.
Using the knowledge you gained from the homeostasis unit, support the connection between built up of uric acid and the possibilities of kidneys malfunctioning.
Explain why freshwater fish should not drink water and why saltwater fish should to
maintain osmotic balance.
Compare and contrast the complete functions of the kidneys and the heart using a table. If you can only choose 1 to remain in your body, what whould you choose? Make your reason more substantial by considering the role of both the heart and the kidneys in blood pressure regulation.

- The functional unit of the mammalian kidney is similar to a piece of dialysis tubing. Quantities of blood plasma that contain dilute amounts of the waste product urea are filtered into the nephron. The concentration of urea in the developing urine is increased by moving water from inside the nephron to the outside. Urea is a larger molecule than water, and unlike water, cannot pass through the membrane of the nephron. Imagine you have been given a piece of dialysis tubing that simulates the nephron membrane, a dilute solution of urea in water, and a beaker of salt water. Applying the concepts and methods used in this investigation, describe how you could concentrate the dilute solution of urea. You can use a drawing to help explain your ideas.arrow_forwardHow would you describe the movement of Na+ and HCO3- ?

- In biology class one day, Mrs. Chabon wrote six physiological functions on the board. Then, she asked groups of students to each choose the three functions that are purposes of the excretory system. These are the lists they made. Group 1: maintaining pH level of blood; transporting hormones throughout the body; regulating growth Group 2: removing wastes from the body; digesting solid foods; maintaining salt and water balance Group 3: maintaining salt and water balance; maintaining pH level of blood; regulating growth Group 4: removing wastes from the body; maintaining pH level of blood; maintaining salt and water balance Which group correctly listed the functions of the excretory system? group 1 group 2 group 3 group 4arrow_forwardA freshwater fish was accidentally placed in salt water.
