A mammal's kidneys filter \(180\,\text{mL}\) of plasma each minute (glomerular filtration rate). Normally, 99 % of the filtered water is re‑absorbed, so the expected urine output is \(1.8\,\text{mL}\) per minute. If the animal is observed to produce urine at a rate of \(1.5\,\text{mL}\) per minute, calculate the actual percentage of filtered water that is excreted and state whether this differs significantly from the normal 1 % non‑reabsorbed value.
