Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Urinalysis is the physical, chemical, and microscopic examination of urine. It involves a number of tests to detect and measure various compounds that pass through the urine.

Detailed explanation-2: -Macroscopic examination targets parameters such as color, clarity, odor, and specific gravity; urine test strips measure chemical properties such as pH, glucose concentration, and protein levels; and microscopy is performed to identify elements such as cells, urinary casts, crystals, and organisms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Doctors often do a microscopic urinalysis as part of an overall urinalysis. After a urine (pee) sample is collected, it’s put into a centrifuge. This special machine separates the liquid in the pee from any solid components, such as blood cells, mineral crystals, or microorganisms.
