Question

Give reasons:
(i) Urine is thicker in summer than in winter.

Answer 1

• In the summer, our body needs more water due to the high temperature in the atmosphere to maintain the temperature inside the body.
• So, the kidney absorbs more water from the urine as a result urine gets thicker.
• As compared to summer in the winter, the demand for water for our body is low.
• So, the kidney does not absorb water from it.
• That’s why urine is thicker in summer than in winter.
