Case study: dale fremore was back home after spending the day at a picnic where he ate some "spoiled" potato salad. he developed
severe abdominal pain and cramps, vomiting, and diarrhea. after about ten to twelve episodes of water diarrhea, mr. fremore became so pale and weak he could hardly walk. his wife took him to the hospital where he was diagnosed with severe dehydration (decreased plasma volume). mr. fremore was suffering from shock. the body has several mechanisms that can come into play to try to maintain blood pressure and blood flow when a person goes into shock. urine output usually decreases when a person is in shock. this is the result of select one: a. decreased adh secretion.
b. increased renin secretion.
c. increased secretion of atrial natriuretic factor.
d. decreased vasoconstriction due to the stress relaxation response.
e. decreased aldosterone secretion
<span>The answer to this question would be: b. increased renin secretion.
When renin secreted, it will activate the </span><span>Renin–angiotensin-aldosterone system which results in secretion of aldosterone and antidiuretic hormone called vasopressin. Aldosterone will work at the kidney by increasing the absorption of natrium, lowering the urinary output as water is following the natrium.</span>
CFTR protein facilitates the transport of chloride ions and water across the cells. Genetic defect in the CFTR gene results in defective protein synthesis. This defect in CFTR protein disrupts the chloride and water channel across the cell. The CFTR protein acts as a channel across the cell membranes which are specialized to produce mucus, sweat, tears etc. Failure of transport channel will result in symptoms like secretion of thick mucus. This mucus can obstruct the airflow and glands resulting in symptoms of cystic fibrosis.
The word you are looking for is aquifers. Aquifers are a body of permeable rock that allows a specific substance that is a liquid or a gas to pass through. In this case, it would be allowing water to pass through.
