Conclusion

1.How would the specific gravity of urine be different after a vigorous workout without consuming significant quantities of a water?After a vigorous workout without consuming significant amounts of water, the specific gravity will have a higher concentration. A vigorous workout increases the breakdown of glucose, without enough water to flush it out it remains in the urine;meaning specific gravity will be high because of the of the high glucose content.
2. The presence of ketones is often high in the urine of both diabetics and people who suffer from anorexia. What characterisitics would these two groups have in common?People suffering from diabetes and anorexia will both have a fruity odor.
3. What factors would contribute to a very high or very low pH in urine? Food, dieting, stress, drugs, breathing rate, and liquid intake can affect the pH of urine. Whether the pH of urine is high or low is determined by whether or not they consume acidic foods, an abundant amount of stress..etc. Depending on consumption will result
in either extreme.
