This video provides an overview of the function of the kidneys in the human body. It describes how the kidneys work to maintain the balance of water and mineral ions in the body, and how they remove waste products from the blood through...

The first laboratory technique that we will learn together is a very simple one, filtration. This is how we separate a mixture of liquids and solids. There are two common ways a chemist will perform filtration, those being gravity...

Separation techniques are important in chemistry, and they won't always be as easy as filtration. Sometimes we need to separate two compounds that are dissolved in the same solution. Often we can take advantage of a difference in...

The Urinary System is a system that is partially responsible for maintaining homeostasis. Before we can understand the function of the Urinary system, let's set the foundation.



In this video, I cover the structure and...

If you want to know how well your kidneys function, a good metric to look at would be the Glomerular Filtration Rate.



The Glomerular Filtration Rate is not constant. It needs to be increased or decreased depending on how...

The nephron is the functional unit of the kidney. In this video, I talk about the nephron's structure and function.



The urinary system is involved in maintaining homeostasis in the body. The bulk of the processing happens in...

In this video, we will discuss: [1] the anatomy of the renal corpuscle [2] glomerular filtration [3] glomerular filtration rate (GFR) [4] what substances get filtered

Drought caused by climate change is forcing El Paso, Texas residents to find alternate sources of water.

Cookie the chef is a multitalented guy. He’s an amazing barista, too! He really takes filter coffee to the next level. Meanwhile, First Mate Phil needs a hand, or a hook, with fixing the ship’s hull. This lesson will explore separation...

The video explains how to separate mixtures through physical processes without breaking any chemical bonds. The speaker describes various techniques such as filtration, crystallization, chromatography, and distillation, while explaining...
