An investigation was carried out to determine the effect of drinking an excessive amount
of water on urine flow. A subject drank 1 liter of water in 5 minutes, and then urine output
was measured. The graph shows how the human adult kidneys responded to regulate water
balance in the body. Urine output was measured every 10 minutes for a little over 3 hours.
Normal output for an average adult is approximately 0.5-1 mL/min.

The human genome project is devoted to mapping the general dna sequence of our species. this could lead to the development of new medicines, as well as the possibility of using gene therapy to treat certain diseases. however, there are some ethical issues surrounding the mapping of individual genomes. one concern is a) that your genes may change over time, making the project useless. b) that insurance companies could discriminate based on genetic make-up. c) that since this has never been done before, we should probably not do it now. d) that sequencing our individual genomes is so expensive, it is a counter-productive strategy.
