Answer» Correct Answer - B
Haemodialysis is done in the patients whose kidneys become completely non-functional. Haemodialysis is the process of diffusion across a semipermeable membrane to remove unwanted substances from the blood while adding desirabel components. The dialysis unit consists of a coiled cellophane tube kept in the dialysing fluid. the membrane of the tube is impermeable to blood cells and proteins but permeable to urea, uric acid, creatinine and mineral ions.
