The negatively charged rod cause charge migration within the penny. So, the protons and electrons in the penny move to seperate sides of the penny with the protons on the side closest to the iron ball. Then the penny could have been touched by a person or another object to ground the penny, removing the excess electrons in the penny. This is called charging by induction. So after grounding, the penny becomes positively charged. Opposite charges attract

Changes that occur in the urinary system with aging include all of the following, EXCEPT
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: c. increased sensitivity to ADH

Explanation:

a. a decline in the number of functional nephrons: With aging the loss of nephron occurs that can be detected by the age related decrease in the glomerular filteration rate.

b. a reduction in the GFR (glomerular filtration rate): The GFR tend to decline in older age even though there is no disease. These people are required to check with the GFR in future.

d. problems with the micturition reflex: With aging people experience problem of bladder control. This leads to leakage or incontinence of urine or urinary retention that is inability to empty the bladder.

e. loss of sphincter muscle tone: With age the sphincter tone may diminish. This results in loss of control and storage capacity. The rectal muscles or sphincter muscles get loose which lead to passage of stool before reaching the washroom.
