Chapter 20, Problem 30RQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The minimum amount of urine that is excreted in a day by a person.
Introduction: Urine is the liquid waste that contains dissolvable waste materials. The excretory system in the body produces urine. Kidneys filter the blood to separate out waste material and produce urine.

Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a condition where the action of antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin) is inhibited. If normal urine concentration is 300 mOsm/L, what would you expect the urine concentration to be of a patient with DI?
A 65-kg man is participating in a research study for
which it is necessary to know the volumes of his body
fluid compartments. To measure these volumes, the
man is injected with 100 mci (millicurie) of H0 and
500 mg of mannitol. During a 2-hour equilibration
period, he excretes 10% of the H,0 and 10% of the
mannitol in his urine. Following equilibration, the
concentration of H,0 in plasma is 0.213 mCi/100 ml
and the concentration of mannitol is 3.2 mg/100 mL.
• What is his total body water, his ECF volume, and his
ICF volume? is the man's total body water appropriate
for his weight?
Given: A patient’s GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is 125 ml/min, and his urine is produced at a rate of 1.25 ml/min.
(A) By what factor is the inulin concentrate in his urine.
(B) The concentration of glucose in his plasma is 5 mmol/l. His renal reabsorption of glucose is completely inhibited. What would be the concentration of glucose in his urine?
(answer parts a and b)
