the 3 things that are filtered out
some water, some ions,all urea
urea comes about from ( deamination is)
proteins can`t be stored liver turns them into fats/carbs
this process releases toxic ammonia
liver converts ammonia to urea
the urea is taken to kidney tubeles
and filtered out in filtration proccess
a small amount of urea is also excreted from skin when you
sweat
the water levels have to be kept constant because of osmosis why?
as osmosis works from high to low conc if there’s a higher level in blood than cells water will move out of cells causing them to function less efficiently
what else has to be kept constant for body cells to work
the ion water balance
the body needs some water and ions but not all so what happens
first the kidneys filter and then reabsorb the useful substances
filtration is
substances removed out of blood passing by kidneys
