Answer:

Vasopressin or antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a nonapeptide synthesized in the hypothalamus. Science has known it to play essential roles in the control of the body’s osmotic balance, blood pressure regulation, sodium homeostasis, and kidney functioning. Given its vital role in multiple functions, it is no surprise that ADH is of great clinical significance. ADH primarily affects the ability of the kidney to reabsorb water; when present, ADH induces expression of water transport proteins in the late distal tubule and collecting duct to increase water reabsorption. Several disease states arise when the body loses control of ADH secretion or responds to its presence.

Choose 6 liquids to layer. Hypothesize what you expect their densities to be. What liquids did you use, and rank their density w
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Let's pick six liquids randomly, i.e. honey, corn syrup, whole milk, water, vegetable oil, rubbing alcohol, and put them in a beaker. The higher density liquid will take the bottom position whereas lower density liquids will be on above of high density liquids.

We know that honey has density (g/cm3) of 1.42, dish soap has 1.06, corn syrup has 1.33, milk has 1.03, water has 1.00 (standard), and vegetable oil and 0.92. Therefore, honey will be at the bottom most position (rank #1). Above which would be corn syrup (rank #2), dish soap (rank #3), milk (rank #4), water  (rank #5) and vegetable oil (rank #6).

The results might be surprising for some students who think that water has highest density.
