how dialysis works?

A dialysis membrane is selectively permeable, and substances smaller than proteins are able to pass through. The dialysis machine allows blood to flow past one side of the dialysis membrane and the dialysis fluid flows on the other side of the membrane. If you wanted to use a dialysis machine to remove only urea (a small molecule) from blood, what could you use for the dialysis fluid?Multiple ChoiceA solution that is isotonic and contains the same concentration of substances as blood, except for having no urea in itWhole bloodHypertonic saltwaterDistilled waterA solution that is isotonic and contains only protein

Why is the dialysate continually replaced in hemodialysis?Multiple Choiceto maintain a favorable concentration gradient with the bloodbecause it is easily infectedbecause it enters the body and is absorbedbecause it is lost by urinationbecause it biodegrades rapidly

Which of the following is/are the Applications of Dialysis? Concentration of macromolecules Removal of acids or alkali from products Purification of biotechnological products All of these
