Osmoreceptors within the hypothalamus detect and increase in plasma osmolarity. This results in a decrease in ADH release from the posterior pituitary, and hence decrease in water permeability of the collecting duct.

<h3>What is osmoregulation?</h3>

Osmoregulation is that the active regulation of the osmotic pressure of an organism's body fluids, detected by osmoreceptors, to take care of the homeostasis of the organism's water content; that is, it maintains the fluid balance and therefore the concentration of electrolytes to keep the body fluids from becoming too diluted or concentrated.

The tendency of water to move into one solution from another by osmosis is osmotic pressure. The upper the osmotic pressure of a solution, the more water tends to maneuver into it.

<h3>Osmoregulation through kidney :</h3>

Pressure must be exerted on the hypertonic side of a selectively permeable membrane to stop diffusion of water by osmosis from the side containing pure water. Although there could also be hourly and daily variations in osmotic balance, an animal is usually in an osmotic steady state over the long term.

Organisms in aquatic and terrestrial environments must maintain the proper concentration of solutes and amount of water in their body fluids; this involves excretion (getting rid of metabolic nitrogen wastes and other substances such as hormones that would be toxic.

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The answer is: individual discrimination.

Explanation:

Individual discrimination occurs between two people, one person discriminating another. In this case, Mary refuses to rent an apartment to Millie due to her age, she is discriminating her and her behavior can be defined as ageist. However, her decision is not based in ageist laws or regulations, which is why it is not institutional discrimination, it is only her decision as an individual.

Individual dscrimination is different from institutional discrimination, however, they both have the intention to hurt the other person and they are both based upon prejudice and stereotypes, which is why individual discrimination should not be taken lightly as it also has the power to affect a person's life.

Dvinal [7]

<u>Answer: </u>

The factor that would be least important to know while interpreting the result of the survey would be the percentage of the people responding who were interviewed on Wednesday instead of Tuesday.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • For a study that is concerned with issues or operations that have been going on for a long time, the day or time at which the study was conducted does not make a great difference, especially when the margin of the period between the days the study was conducted is very small.
  • When an interview about an issue that is of periodic significance is to be conducted, the period or the time of the interview does matter a lot.
