If a person had not drunk any water for 8 hours before collecting a sample, would you expect his/her urine to have a high or low specific gravity? Why?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The person’s urine will have a high specific gravity

Explanation:

A high specific gravity is characterized by an increased concentration of solutes in the urine of am individual. A low specific gravity is characterized by a low or decreased concentration of the solutes.This is usually due to dehydration as a result of environmental conditions or tedious physical activities.

This explains why a person who had not drank any water for 8 hours and is dehydrated before collecting a sample is thought to have a urine with a high specific gravity
