Lesson: Osmoregulation Biology

In this lesson, we will learn how to describe the function of the kidney in osmoregulation and creation of urine.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

recall that the collecting ducts of the kidney collect urine from the nephrons,
state that if a person is dehydrated, more water will be absorbed from the urine in the collecting ducts and into the bloodstream,
state that if a person is well hydrated, more water will be excreted in the urine,
describe the effect of ADH on increasing the permeability of the kidney tubules and allowing more water reabsorption in the body.
