Show how our water content is controlled by our kidneys

Water content and ion content is carefully controlled or cells can be damaged by osmosis. This is an important aspect of maintaining constant conditions in our bodies (homeostasis). Our model shows the structure of the kidney and the kidney tubule (nephron) and how the hormone ADH controls water content.
