State the major processes of the urinary system and describe the activity of each process.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

The urinary system removes excess substances and waste products from the metabolism from the body through the urine, contributing to the maintenance of homeostasis, the chemical composition of the internal environment. Urine is produced in the kidneys, passes through the ureters to the bladder, where it is stored and is released into the exterior through the urethra.

The kidneys perform the main work of the urinary system comparing with the other parts of the system, acting primarily as passageways and storage areas. With the filtration of blood and the formation of urine, the kidneys contribute to homeostasis of body fluids in a number of ways, such as: Regulation of the ionic composition of blood; Maintenance of blood osmolarity; Regulation of blood volume; Blood pressure regulation; PH regulation of blood; Hormone release; Regulation of blood glucose level; Waste excretion and toxic substances.

Ureters - They are two tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The ureters are capable of performing rhythmic contractions called peristalsis. Urine moves along the ureters in response to gravity and peristalsis.

Bladder - The urinary bladder acts as a temporary reservoir for urine storage. It is a hollow, elastic muscular organ that in men is directly anterior to the rectum and in women, is located in front of the vagina and below the uterus.

Urethra - is a tube that conducts urine from the bladder to the outside, being lined with mucosa that contains a large amount of mucus-secreting glands. The urethra opens outwards through the outer ostium of the urethra.

An urban planner wants to build some new homes in a woodland area but wants to do so in a manner that is the least disruptive to
Julli [10]

Answer:

Avoid fragmenting the forest by building the new homes together on one side of the forest

Explanation:

<em>Fragmentation of forest involves breaking of large continuous forests into smaller, ecologically less diverse units</em>. This often happen as a result of human factors such as road construction, agriculture, building construction, and so on.

Forest fragmentation has several effects including, reduction in forest's health, degradation of habitats loss of biodiversity, among others.

Hence, the best mode of action is for the urban planner to build the homes clustered together on one side of the forest to avoid fragmenting the forest.

When human red blood cells are placed in pure water, the cells immediately burst. which process explains what happens to the red
irga5000 [103]
The process of osmosis explains what happened to the cells.

Osmosis is where water molecules will flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential, through a partially permeable membrane. Red blood cell is a human cell and have a partially permeable membrane. At the same time, pure water has the highest water potential among all substances, and of course higher than the cytoplasm of the red blood cell, therefore, water molecules will flow from the water to the red blood cell.

So much water has flown to the red blood cells that the cell membrane cannot hold all and eventually the cell bursts. Therefore, the process of osmosis explains this result.
