Water Gain and Water Loss
Mammals gain and lose water in several ways.
Over the course of the day water gain is equal to water loss.
This is known as osmoregulation
Osmoregulation – regulation of water content in mammals.

Urinary system
The system responsible for osmoregulation is called the urinary system.
urethra

Part Function
Kidney Filtration of blood.
Reabsorption of important substances.
Bladder Stores urine.
Ureter Transports urine from kidney to bladder
Urethra Carries urine from bladder to external environment.
Renal artery Carries unpurified blood into the kidney.
Renal vein Carries purified blood away from the kidney.

Urea
Urea is made in the liver.
Urea is made by breaking down excess amino acids (remember that this process is known as deamination!)
Urea is transported to kidney in the blood by the renal artery.
Urea is removed from the body as urine.

Filtration By The Kidney
Blood enters the kidney via the renal artery (red) and leaves via the renal vein (blue)
![Page 10: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The kidney
Main organ of osmoregulation.
3 main functions:Filtration of bloodReabsorption of useful materials e.g.
glucose, water, amino acids and some salts
Production of urine
![Page 11: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Structure of the kidney
The renal artery which contains unpurified blood enters the kidney and divides into many tiny branches.
The blood in each tiny branch is filtered in a special filtering unit called a nephron.
![Page 12: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Structure of the kidney
Each kidney is made up of about 1 million tiny filtration units called NEPHRONS
Nephrons filter the blood and then reabsorb the useful substances.
![Page 13: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

The Role of the Nephron
The nephron reabsorbs useful substances such a glucose back into the blood vessels.
Tiny blood vessels then join up as they leave the kidney. This forms the renal vein.
The renal vein carries purified blood back to the body.
![Page 16: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Structure of the Nephron
Renal artery divides into about a million tiny branches.
Each branch leads to a glomerulus (a tiny knot of blood capillaries).
The glomerulus is surrounded by a cup-shaped Bowman's capsule which leads to a long tubule.
![Page 17: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Renal artery
Knot of blood capillaries called a GLOMERULUS
The glomerulus sits inside a cup-
shaped BOWMAN’S CAPSULE
![Page 18: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Filtration
Blood vessels that enter the glomerulus are wider than those that leave.
Blood inside these vessels are under pressure (being squeezed).
This means that only the small molecules in blood are squeezed out of the tiny spaces in the capillary wall and collect in the Bowman's capsule.
This liquid is now called glomerular filtrate.
Blood cells and plasma proteins are too big to fit through the pores so remain in the blood.

Reabsorption By Kidney All glucose and variable
amounts of water, amino acids and salts are reabsorbed back into the blood
No urea is reabsorbed – expelled as urine (excess water dilutes urea)
Water is absorbed again by collecting duct
![Page 20: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Excretion By The Kidney Urine is a nitrogenous waste product.
It must be removed from the body because it is toxic
Urea must be excreted as urine so that urea can be removed from the body

Osmoregulation in Freshwater Fish
![Page 23: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Freshwater Fish
Freshwater fish gain water by osmosis
Examples of freshwater fish are pike, perch and sticklebacks
Freshwater fish have a water balance problem as they take in too much water
Freshwater fish have many, large glomeruli to filter the water quickly
![Page 24: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Water enters gills by osmosis
Freshwater enters mouth
Gills also absorb salts that the fish needs
A large volume of dilute urine is
produced
There is a lower water concentration inside the
fish than outside, so water moves in by osmosis
![Page 25: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Marine (saltwater) Fish
Marine fish lose water by osmosis
Examples of freshwater fish are haddock, herring and cod
Water flows out of the gills because the water concentration of the salty sea water is lower than the water concentration inside the fish
To get round this problem, marine fish have to drink a lot of sea water and filter it to absorb the water
Excess salt is pumped out of the fish via the gills
Marine fish have few, small glomeruli to filter the water slow
![Page 26: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Sea water
Loses water by osmosis as there is a higher water
concentration inside the fish than outside
Excess salts are excreted from the gills
A small volume of concentrated urine is
produced
![Page 27: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Top Tip!
You should be aware that the situations for the freshwater and the
marine water fish is the exact opposite problems. If you know one well, you should be able to work out the other!
![Page 28: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Receptors and Effectors
Any changes from the normal point is picked up by special cells called receptors
Receptors are specialised cells that detect changes in the internal environment
![Page 29: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Receptors and Effectors
For the correction to be carried out, receptor cells pass on the message about this change to effectors, which carry out corrective mechanisms
Effectors are cells or organs that respond to messages from receptors by producing a corrective mechanism
![Page 30: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Negative Feedback Control
Negative feedback control is a process by which changes to conditions in the internal environment are returned to normal
![Page 32: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Controlling Water Concentration
Pituitary Gland
hypothalamus
![Page 33: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Controlling Water Concentration
A part of your brain called the hypothalamus contains osmoreceptors that detect the concentration of water in the blood
If the water concentration of the blood is too low, the osmoreceptors trigger a hormone to be released into the blood called ANTIDIURETIC HORMONE (ADH)
ADH acts by increasing the permeability of the nephron tubules to water
![Page 34: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Low Water Concentration In the Blood
If you are feeling dehydrated, the concentration of water in the blood is low
Osmoreceptors detect this and send out more ADH to allow more water to be reabsorbed from the nephrons back into the blood
This allows the concentration of water to return to normal
Little urine is produced
![Page 35: Control of The Internal Environment. Water Gain and Water Loss Mammals gain and lose water in several ways. Over the course of the day water gain is equal](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070412/56649eca5503460f94bd8f47/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
High Water Concentration In the Blood
If you have drunk a lot of water, your blood is full of water
Osmoreceptors detect this and send out less ADH to allow less water to be reabsorbed from the nephrons back into the blood
This allows the concentration of water to return to normal
A lot of urine is produced
