PALS TEST FINAL TEST 2026
QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS GRADED A+
◍ loop of henle.
Answer: The loop of the nephron that dips downward into the renal medulla.
The loop of Henle sets up a concentration gradient in the kidney such that
from the cortex to the renal pelvis osmolarity increases. The descending
limb of the loop of Henle is permeable to water, but not to sodium whereas
the ascending limb is permeable to sodium, but not to water (and in fact,
actively transports sodium out of the filtrate).
◍ henle's loop.
Answer: #13
◍ filtrate.
Answer: fluid that passes from the blood through the capillary walls of the
glomeruli of the kidney
◍ Na, Cl.
Answer: what elements are reabsorbed in the ascending loop, the dista
convoluted tubule, and the collecting ducts?
◍ uric acid.
Answer: Nitrogenous waste formed when proteins are used in cells. It is
excreted by the kidneys in urine.
◍ renal artery.
Answer: #4
◍ renal tubules.
Answer: where does reabsorption and secretion occur?
, ◍ hilum.
Answer: notch in kidneys where arteries, veins, and nerves enter
◍ distal convoluted tubule.
Answer: Between the loop of Henle and the collecting duct; Selective
reabsorption and secretion occur here, most notably to regulate reabsorption
of water and sodium
◍ lobar.
Answer: #6
◍ collecting ducts.
Answer: receives urine from many nephrons and runs downward through the
medullary pyramids, giving them their striped appearance. they give the
striped appearance. as they approach the renal pelvis, they fuse to form
larger papillary ducts, which empty the final urinary product into the clayces
and pelvis of the kidney
◍ internal urinary sphincter.
Answer: which sphincter keeps male semen out of the bladder?
◍ ureter.
Answer: #1
◍ ascending limb.
Answer: where does the dilution of urine begin?
◍ prostatic urethra.
Answer: #11
◍ tubules, collecting ducts.
Answer: where does aldosterone stimulate the reabsorption of Na and Cl
◍ angiotensin converting enzyme.
Answer: converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II
◍ glomerular filtration rate.
Answer: the amount of blood filtered by the glomeruli in a given time;
