Question
Chapter 25.4, Problem 12BYGO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reason for the difference in origins of the nephron and the collecting duct to urethra.
Introduction:
The function of the excretory system is to remove the waste of the body. It maintains the chemical composition of the body fluids by removing the unwanted components and maintaining the level of water and electrolytes in the body. Moreover, the level of water in the body is maintained by the excretory system.

What is the role of solute concentration in the formation of urine in the nephrons? 2. How does the Henry’s Law explain blood respiration and oxygenation? 3.
