    COLOR: Blood is typically red, but can appear darker or brighter
    depending on the oxygen content.
    VISCOSITY: Blood is thicker than water due to the presence of
    cells & proteins.
    PH: Blood has a slightly alkaline pH, typically between 7.35 and 7.45. An average-sized man has about
    TEMPERATURE: Slightly higher than body temperature: 12 pints of blood in his body, and
    approximately 38°C (100.4°F). an average-sized woman has

    MODULE 12

    CHEMICAL COMPOSITION:
    WATER (95–97%) The major component of urine, responsible for dissolving and carrying waste products out of the body.
    UREA (~2%) A nitrogen-containing compound resulting from protein metabolism.
    ELECTROLYTES (~1–2%) Sodium (Na⁺), potassium (K⁺), chloride (Cl⁻), calcium (Ca²⁺), and magnesium (Mg²⁺).
    CREATININE A waste product of muscle metabolism.
    URIC ACID A byproduct of purine metabolism, contributing to nitrogen waste.

    PIGMENTS Give urine its characteristic yellow color.

    PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: CHEMICAL PROPERTIES:

    COLOR: Ranges from pale yellow to deep amber due ACIDITY/ALKALINITY:


    to urochrome concentration.
    Urine pH reflects dietary habits and metabolic processes.
    Acidic urine is common with protein-heavy diets, while
    alkaline urine is typical with vegetarian diets.
    ODOR: Slightly aromatic but varies depending on
    diet, hydration, and health.

    REACTIVITY:
    PH: Typically ranges between 4.5 and 8.0, with an Urea can hydrolyze into ammonia
    average of about 6.0 (slightly acidic). under alkaline conditions, leading
    to a strong odor.
