The kidneys perform several important functions in the human body. One of these is to regulate the amount of water that makes up

the liquid part of blood. If too much water is present, the kidney will increase the amount of urine produced and lower the amount of liquid water in the blood. If the amount of water is too low, the kidney will decrease the amount of urine produced in order to conserve water. A person spends several days in a hot, dry desert environment with little water available to drink. Which statement does BEST summarize how the kidneys will function during this time?

Answer:

The kidney will reduce the amount of urine produced to conserve water.

Explanation:

It should be understood that when a person is found in an area where it is hot or considered as desert ,where the supply or presence of water is naturally or expectedly low, the individual's kidneys will try to conserve the water in his/her own body, by reducing the amount of urine produced. This is to make water available for the body during that unpalatable condition.
