Okay, need some clarification on a&p:

This sentence is out of the book: Page 533 bottom right corner.

Still another effect of aldosterone is to increase water reabsorption by the tubule cells, because as sodium is reclaimed, water follows it passively back into the blood.

So it's saying reabsorption by the cells, but then back into the blood. Where does the reabsorption actually go, tissue cells or blood?

Hey, Red, check your moc email.

Jennip, no plans except flash cards, reading, online test, and decide btw my two

watches....classic utilitarian or one I really like but has more crevices for hidey things.

Keyna - Water follows salt!! As sodium is "reclaimed" back into the blood, the water follows it passively. Once in blood it can be transported to where it needs to go.

Basically - the glomerulus filters the H out of our blood - sugars, electrolytes, water, etc - but, during reabsorption it takes about 95% of it back. Why? We are awesome!!!

You're so sweet Keyna! Anybody got big plans for the weekend?

I have awesome plans: nurse myself back to health (all the poking I endured today made me feel a wee-bit violated), reading (maybe), hair (maybe), shopping (definitely), drinking (tea & cough syrup), AND get my car inspected (maybe). My weekend is going to be a real :yawn:

Thanks, Bee. Makes sense. What's confusing me is the double talk about back to blood and back to cells in the same sentence.

Good luck with your weekend...try to fit some relaxation in there!

Sounds like too much to do Bee, I suggest taking a nap :)

and Keyna, I'll be studying too. Hopefully get some of this laundry that's taking over my house done. I got a battery for an old watch of my daughter's though, a whole whopping 5 bucks!! That's my kind of watch right there! :)
