Maintaining homeostasis involves many processes. One of these includes the excretion of waste. Our kidneys work very hard to
filter blood of waste products and control how much water is kept in the body. The waste products and water make up urine.
A dehydrated individual would have a concentrated urine that's a darker yellow in color than that of a healthy urine. Why is that?
the liver sends extra urea molecules to the kidney in a dehydrated person
the body reabsorbs the water back into the body, leaving the urine
concentrated
dehydrated urine contains additional ions that cause the urine to have a
different color
the capillaries in the kidney compensate for the water loss by excreting
diluted blood in the urine.
