Drinking alcoholic or caffeinated beverages increases urine output more than drinking an equivalent amount of water.

Biology
1 answer:
olga2289 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A) ADH secretion decreases. B) Urine osmolarity decreases.

Explanation:

Antidiuretic Hormone or ADH is responsible for the reabsorption of water through the kidneys.

A) Drinking alcoholic and/or caffeinated beverages decreases the release and effect of ADH so the water does not get absorbed as much as it should, which in turn results in more urination.

B) Osmolarity is a term used to express the concentration of a solution in terms of a certain particle. Since less ADH secretion results in more water being in the urine, this lowers the concentration of the urine. So urine osmolarity would be decreased.

I hope this answer helps.

The Gap 2(G2) stage of Interphase

Explanation:

In a eukaryotic cell, the cell cycle refers to both -cell growth and cell division - leading to the production of identical daughter cells. The cell cycle is basically divided into interphase (I) and mitosis (M).

The interphase, during which the cell grows and replicates its DNA takes place by the following stages – Gap 1 (G1), Synthesis (S), Gap 2(G2).

The cells grow and increase in size during the G1 period.

The G2 phase or the second gap phase the cell utilizes energy and produces necessary proteins for undergoing chromosome manipulation and other organelles and prepares the cell for mitotic cell division.

DNA replication mainly takes place in the Synthesis or the S stage of interphase with each of the chromosomes (46) is replicated.  

Due to this DNA replication in the S stage, its content is doubled (4-N DNA content) when it enters the G2 stage and all the DNA is found within a single nucleus.

why do seismic waves that travel along the earth’s surface cause more damage than other seismic waves?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

S waves are more dangerous than P waves because they have greater amplitude and produce vertical and horizontal motion of the ground surface. The slowest waves, surface waves, arrive last. They travel only along the surface of the Earth. There are two types of surface waves: Love and Rayleigh waves.
