glomerulus - ANS Compact ball of capillaries in a nephron is called the
Urea - ANS is the most abundant nitrogenous waste in the blood.
Proximal convoluted tubule - ANS is the most sodium is reabsorbed from the glomerular
filtrate.
Renal corpuscle - ANS consists of glomerulus and glomerular capsule.
shorter - ANS Species that have relatively little need to conserve water are expected to have
(shorter OR longer) nephron loops than humans do.
higher - ANS Increased ADH secretion should cause the urine to have (higher OR lower)
specific gravity.
Renal auto-regulation - ANS ________ is the ability of a nephron to adjust its GFR
independently of nervous or hormonal influences.
macula densa - ANS The ______ _______ is a group of epithelial cells of the nephron loop
that monitors the flow or composition of the tubular fluid.
, podocytes - ANS To enter the capsular space, filtrate must pass between foot processes of the
___________ cells that form the visceral layer of the glomerular capsule.
transport maximum - ANS Glycosuria occurs if the rate of the glomerular filtration of glucose
exceeds the _______ ________ of the proximal convoluted tubule.
Antidiuretic hormone - ANS ________________ is a hormone that regulates the amount of
water reabsorbed by the collecting duct.
protein - ANS Very little _________ is found in the glomerular filtrate because it is negatively
charged and is repelled by the basement membrane of the glomerulus.
False - ANS The proximal convoluted tubule is not subject to hormonal influence.
False - ANS Sodium is the most abundant solute in the urine.
True - ANS The kidney has more distal convoluted tubules that collecting ducts.
False - ANS Tight junctions prevent material from leaking between the epithelial cells of the
renal tubule.
True - ANS If all other conditions remain the same, constriction of the afferent arteriole reduces
the glomerular filtration rate.
True - ANS Angiotensin II reduces urine output.
False - ANS The minimum osmolarity of urine is 300 mOsm/L, equal to the osmolarity of the
blood.
True - ANS A sodium deficiency (hyponatremia) could cause glycosuria.
parathyroid hormone, angiotensin II - ANS Calcium and sodium reabsorption by PCT are
influenced by the _______________ and ______________.
paracellular route, tight junctions - ANS A substancial amount of tubular fluid is reabsorbed by
the ___________ ___________, passing through leaky __________ ___________.
proximal convoluted tubule - ANS Most sodium and nutrients are primarily reabsorbed from the
glomerular filtrate by ____________________.
False - ANS If all other conditions remain the same, dilation of the afferent arteriole reduces
the glomerular filtration rate. True OR False
