Q.NO. 2 A) ANSWER THE
FOLLOWING: 1) GIVE REASONS: If
kidneys are adversely affected,
dialysis is required.

removing waste, salt and extra
water to prevent them from building
up in the body. Keeping a safe level
of certain chemicals in your blood,
such as K, Na, etc.
O
The efficiency of kidneys can be
adversely affected by injury,
infection or decreased blood supply.
In case this happens an excess of
toxic substances accumulates in the

Explanation:
Chronic kidney disease is a slow and progressive loss of kidney function over a period of several years. Eventually, a person will develop permanent kidney failure.
Chronic kidney disease, also known as chronic renal failure, chronic renal disease, or chronic kidney failure, is much more widespread than people realize; it often goes undetected and undiagnosed until the disease is well advanced.
It is not unusual for people to realize they have chronic kidney failure only when their kidney function is down to 25 percent of normal.
As kidney failure advances and the organ’s function is severely impaired, dangerous levels of waste and fluid can rapidly build up in the body. Treatment is aimed at stopping or slowing down the progression of the disease – this is usually done by controlling its underlying cause.
