In normal situations:
-The thin ascending limb is of the loop of henle is impermeable to water. But, is permeable to ions (sodium, chloride) that cross by diffusion.
-Urine osmolality should be 300-900 mOsm/kg of water.

In this case, if the <span>ascending limb of the loop of henle is permeable to water is the same as saying the loop isn't doing it's job of </span>creating a concentration gradient.
Because of that, The process  of reabsorption of water and creation of a concentrated urine is not correctly happening.

The answer is E<span>. minimum 300 / maximum 300
</span>
The loop of Henle receives isotonic (300 mOsm/L) fluid, from the <span>proximal convoluted tubule, and since it's not working th way it should it won't change those values. </span>

Right around 70% of the outer layer of the Earth is covered with water. Thus, it is known as a blue planet and an extraordinary planet.

Earth has an air holding back 20% of the oxygen that aides in the endurance of living creatures.

Gases like oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen in the Earth's environment assist plants with developing.

Earth is spheroid in shape. It is critical contrasted with different planets like Mercury, Mars, Neptune, Pluto, and Venus.
