pH is the measure of the hydrogen concentration of the solution: -log[H+] where [H+] is usually expressed in moles/L. Don’t let the word log scare you – it simply means the number over the base ten (i.e., the exponent). Thus, each unit increase in the pH value represents a ten-fold reduction in the concentration of H+.

One of the kidney's roles is to remove substances from the blood. Clearance is the volume of plasma per minute (ml plasma/min) from which a particular substance is totally removed or “cleared.” For any substance A, the amount entering the tubule, each minute, is defined as its Tubular Load (TLA), or Filtered Load (FLA). Tubular load depends on the plasma concentration and the rate of filtration of that solute, such as TLA = PA x GFR

The spirometer is an instrument that is normally used to measure the flow of air in and out of the lungs under varying conditions. The wet spirometer is based on the simple mechanical principle that air, exhaled from the lungs, will cause displacement of a closed chamber which is partially submerged in water. Basically, it consists of two vessels: a larger vessel containing water and having a breathing hose attached to it; and a smaller vessel inverted and suspended in the water. A counterwe...
