Question

In uremia, an artificial kidney is used for removing accumulated waste products like urea by the process called
A. Micturition
B. Ureotelism
C.Reverse dialysis
D.Haemodialysis

Answer 1

Uremia is a chronic kidney disease where the urea is at a high level in the blood which happens when the kidney fails to excrete the unwanted wastes it can be caused due to acute renal failure or injury in the kidney.

Complete answer:
Hemodialysis is the process of filtering the blood by the artificial kidney. In this, the excess water, nitrogenous waste such as urea, and the toxins which are present in the blood are removed from the person who is losing their kidney function. Hemodialysis is also known as renal replacement therapy. The presence of excess urea in the blood is called uremia, it occurs due to chronic disease or kidney failure. In this process, the blood is pumped out of the patient’s body which is then filtered through a machine that purifies the blood and then returned to the body with the help of the tubes which connect the machine and the machine.
Hence, the correct option is ‘D’ Haemodialysis

Note: The process of expelling urine from the urinary bladder, which is also known as the voiding of the bladder is called Micturition. Dialysis is a process of removing the waste and the excess fluid from the body, it is done when the kidney is not able to filter the blood which can lead to kidney death or coma.
