Bohr Model of the Atom (Explain what it shows and list one con for this model.) -Electrons orbit around the nucleus. -Each orbit has a fixed energy called an energy level. -To move from one energy level to another, an electron must gain or lose just the right amount of energy. -Each energy level has a different energy. -The further from the nucleus the energy level is, the more energy it has.
Because of this, creatinine tests measure the amount of creatinine in urine (for a creatinine urine test) or blood (in a serum creatinine test) and use this information to determine whether the kidneys are functioning normally.
Creatinine is a normal waste product produced by muscle metabolism. When your kidneys are functioning normally, they filter creatinine and other waste products out of your blood and send them out of the body through urine. A creatinine urine test measures the amount of creatinine in your urine and can help your doctor evaluate how well your kidneys filter waste. This is useful in diagnosing or ruling out kidney diseases and some other conditions.
