Discuss in detail all hormones that effect fluid and electrolyte imbalance – some of these are multi-stepped processes make sure you explain all the steps in regards to how the hormone regulates these levels, including how/when the hormones are secreted and the effects that they have.(Some of these might work together- hint most hormones regulate from the kidney.

What are the functions of the kidneys Describe the method in which fluid enters the glomerular capsule,What does the filtrate consist of, and where does the filtrate go when it leaves the glomerulus?Follow this filtrate from the glomerulus -describe what occurs specifically as the filtrate moves through the nephron (include the processes of reabsorption and secretion, what they are and how they occur).What are the functions of the collecting ducts

Describe the passage of urine from the collecting ducts to the outside of the body. How does the act of urination happen in infants and what are the differences in urination for healthyadults?Some solutes in urine are signs of disease or dysfunction- what would be abnormal in urine (that health care providers test for) and what disease process does each possibly represent (some disease conditions are told for you in this chapter other of the “abnormal” are given but the disease process is not.
