### process | excretion:

Biliary excretion
* contributes to the elimination of candesartan.
* is the preferred route of excretion of mercury.
* pathway for transformed biometabolites from the liver.

Urinary excretion
* Most urinary excretion depends on intake.
* increases with acidification and decreases with alkalization of the urine.
* is in the form of metabolites.
* is the main route of elimination of the drug
  - major pathway for the elimination of arsenic compounds from the body
* minor excretory pathway for drug.
* protects against the accumulation of high levels of potassium.
* shows trends.

### process | excretion:

Urination
* Most urination helps blood pressure
  - lower high blood pressure
  - leads to dehydration
* Some urination reduces blood pressure
  - removes bile
  - high pressure
  - individuals
* helps lower high blood pressure
* is more frequent with seizures.
* is painful, and urine is dark
  - frequent at night, dribbling when walking
  - the most common form of scent marking for wolves
  - under voluntary control of the external sphincter
* is used as a territorial marking tool by uneutered males, and unspayed females in heat
  - to mark the perimeter of a pack's territory
* requires relaxation of the sphincter muscle.
* takes place only when the muscle and nerves are working correctly.

### process | excretion | urination:

Frequent urination
* Most frequent urination leads to dehydration.
* can be a symptom of an underlying medical condition
  - many different problems
* very small price to pay for upregulated energy enzymes.

Painful urination
* indicates a urinary tract infection.
* is one of the earliest and worst symptoms of a bladder infection.

Submissive urination
* is an involuntary response to fear or excitement
  - the ultimate show of respect and deference for higher rank
* occurs in both male and female dogs, but is more common in the latter
  - more frequently in young animals
  - when a dog is acting submissive to a person or to another dog

Experimental procedure
* are procedures.
* can affect the outcome of an experiment.

Extraction
* are natural processes
  - removals
* is an action
* simple separation of analyte from matrix.
* special kind of direct liquefaction in which a solvent is used without hydrogen.

### process | extraction:

Decoction
* are extractions
  - much stronger medicinal teas than are infusions
  - similar to infusions but are made from roots, barks, nuts, and seeds
  - stronger than infusions
* is an extraction
  - another method, where herbs are cooked in a special pot to retain the oils
* is made by allowing it to boil some length of time
  - using three ounces of the root to one quart of water, and boil
* made from the bark and leaves are a gentle laxative.
* refers to boiling the beans until the flavor is released.

### process | extraction:

Desiccation
* also poses a problem for reproducing on land.
  - another kind of winterkill that damages our plants in winter
  - common on evergreen plants, but it can occur on deciduous plants as well
  - responsible for the disintegration of cervid skulls with unshed antlers
  - the process of drying out due to the effect of sunlight and wind
* occurs because water is limited due to reduced root activity and frozen soil
  - when water leaves the plant faster than it is taken up
* requires that all water be removed from tissue.
* threatens animals living in intertidal zones on the rocky shore.

Mineral extraction
* affects the environment, just as our houses, roads and sewer systems do.
  - industry that has been on the public dole for more than a hundred years
  - limited to limestone, gypsum, sea salt, and other construction materials
* is small, the most important minerals being coal, rare earth metals and gold
  - being rare earth metals and gold
* non-sustainable activity due to the finite nature of the resource.
