What are the four transport mechanisms that play a role in hemodialysis? - Answer-Ultrafiltration, Convection, Diffusion, and Osmosis Ultrafiltration - Answer-Fluid pushed through the semipermeable membrane (SPM) membrane Convection - Answer-Solutes dragged across SPM along with fluid Diffusion - Answer-Particles moves from area of high concentration to low Osmosis - Answer-Fluid moves from area of low to high concentration What are the kidneys' excretory functions? - Answer-To n...

Components of Respiratory Function Correct Answer--respiration requires gas exchange and consists of these components 1-ventilation 2-diffusion 3-perfusion -normal breath we take in =500mL -Gas exchange= consists of Nitrogen 79%, O2 21% (Rm Air); CO2 =0.4%; water vapor, helium & argon. ventilation Correct Answer--movement of air from the atmosphere to the alveoli diffusion Correct Answer--exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide at the alveolar-capillary membrane (higher to lower concent...

Praxis 5442 - Physical Science Latest Update Graded A+ [Ca(NO3)2] calcium nitrate 1st law of thermodynamics The principle of conservation of energy. Energy can be transferred and transformed, but it cannot be created or destroyed. 2nd law of thermodynamics The principle whereby every energy transfer or transformation increases the entropy of the universe. Ordered forms of energy are at least partly converted to heat, and in spontaneous reactions, the free energy of the system also...
