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.

What are your current perceptions of the flu vaccine? Do you think these recommendations are appropriate? Explain your reasoning
Natasha_Volkova [10]
The flu vaccine is a medicinal shot which is supposed to prevent/ and or decrease your chances of getting the flu. It is supposedly working as stated by the producers of this vaccine however many children have been given this vaccine and it dosen`t work. The recommendations are appropriate  as it is better to be safe than sorry. However there are some negative effects. For example a person would get a cold afterwards and this of course is sickness. Overall, I recommend not highly, but as i stated earlier it is better to be safe than sorry.

How can scientists test their ideas about the origin of the universe if they can't physically interact with or study it?
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

<em>The cosmological principle makes assumptions that provide scientific guidelines to enable its study.</em>

Explanation:

Cosmology can be described as the study of the origin of the universe.

Although scientists cannot physically study about the origin of the universe but the cosmological studies help scientists to derive ways which makes it easier to hypothesize about the origin of the universe. There are numerous theories and hypothesis generated for the origin of universe based on the cosmological principle.  The cosmological principle states that universe on the whole is homogeneous and it looks the same at any location.
