BIOD 152 MODULE 7 COMPLETE STUDY GUIDE
WITH SOLVED QUESTIONS
◉ The process of filtration takes place at the glomerulus.
Answer: true
◉ Blood flows from the renal artery back to the the renal vein in this
sequence:
Renal artery, segmental artery, interlobar artery, arcuate artery,
cortical radiate artery, cortical radiate vein, arcuate vein, interlobar
vein, renal vein.
Answer: true
◉ Interlobar arteries and veins are located within the renal columns.
Answer: true
◉ Micturition is synonymous with urinating.
Answer: true
◉ From proximal to distal the parts of the nephron are:
Renal corpuscle, DistalConvoluted Tubule, Nephron Loop (Loop of
Henle), Proximal Convoluted Tubule.
, Answer: false
◉ The glomerulus is a capillary bed that is part of the renal
corpuscle, it functions in the production of filtrate.
Answer: true
◉ The renal corpsuscle consists of the glomerular capsule and the
glomerulus.
Answer: true
◉ Renal corpuscles are located at the renal pelvis.
Answer: false
◉ Calyces drain urine into the renal pelvis, from there urine is
drained into the ureter.
Answer: true
◉ The efferent arteriole directly supplies arterial blood to the
glomerulus.
Answer: false
◉ The vasa recta (ladder-like capillaries) surround the nephron
loops of juxtamedullary nephrons.
