Medicine

Gala2k [10]4 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

The reason for the fact that the blood is usually not found in the urine of a healthy person is:

Kidneys are located in back just below the lowest rib. Each kidney is about 4.5 inches long and weighs about 5 ounces. Each kidney contains about a million functional units called nephrons.

<u>Every nephron consists of glomerulus and tubule. Each glomerulus unit functions as tiny filter. Blood in the body passes through these glomerulus, that retains the blood cells and large biomolecules like proteins in circulation while allowing fluid and some small molecules to pass through to tubule. </u>

<u>As the fluid flows through tubules, much of the volume of the liquid is absorbed back in bloodstream. The tubules then join to form collecting system of each kidney. By this point, the concentrated fluid has all characteristics of the urine.</u>

If blood occur in the urine, that means the nephrons cannot function properly which can lead to kidney damage.

Are cats more adaptive to weather than dogs?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The question is generally broad, as there are many different breeds of dogs and cats so comparing the two and the many breeds that had gone through decades of adaptation and breeding makes this a difficult question to answer.

However,

Studies show that cats can tolerate more higher and intense temperatures.

An important note:

<u>adaptation</u> generally means to change oneself in order to survive with the external environment,

<u>toleration</u> is the ability to tolerate or handle the situation or in this case the environment.

Continuing the However

This study brings many stereotypes that all cats can handle the weather while all dogs can't, but then again there are many breeds of the two species.

Cats do have many strategies to keep cool, and they can obtain hyperthermia and illnesses relating to extreme heat.

Cats use the strategies such as conserving their energy, drinking water, constant self-grooming, and finding cooler places allow them to be more adaptative than dogs.  

Cats also have an insulating process within their coats of fur which all dogs may not have (or some other breeds of cats).

In conclusion

Cats do have more adaptative properties than dogs, however, this varies from the amount of different breeds and how different the two species are.
