UTA 5315 Exam 5 Renal and Repro
2024/2025 Exam Questions with 100%
Correct Answers | Latest Update



Inversly - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔phosphorus and calcium are _______ related


Decreases, increases - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Calcium __________ in renal

failure, so phosphorus ______________


Nephron - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Functions: filtration, reabsorption, secretion


glomerular filtration - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The first step in urine formation in

which substances in blood pass through the filtration membrane and the

filtrate enters the proximal convoluted tubule of the nephron.


Glomerular filtration rate GFR - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔amount of filtrate formed in

all the renal corpuscles of both kidneys each minute; filtration of plasma per

unit of time; directly related to the perfusion pressure in the glomerular

capillaries; filtrate enters proximal tubule @ 125ml/min

,proximal convoluted tubule - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔first section of the renal tubule

that the blood flows through; Reabsorbs all the glucose and reabsorbs

amino acids, most of the HCO3, a, Cl, phosphate, K, H20; If serum glucose

is >180 mg/dL, the renal threshold for glucose is exceeded and results in

glucosuria and damage associated with DM; When stimulated by the

parathyroid hormone, this tubule excretes phosphate; The site of action for

angiotensin II, which stimulates Na, H20, and Bicarb reabsorption


Descending loop of Henle - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔section of nephron tubing that

extends from proximal tubule; impermeable to Na, passively reabsorbs

water and concentrates urine


ascending loop of henle - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔section of nephron tubing that

extends from descending loop of henle; actively reabsorbs Na, K, Cl;

Induces the reabsorption of magnesium and Ca and is IMPEREABLE to

water -> making the urine more dilute


distal convoluted tubule - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Between the descending loop of

Henle and the collecting duct; Selective reabsorption and secretion occur

here, actively reabsorbs Na; Impermeable to water, making urine more

dilute; Parathyroid hormone increases Ca reabsorption here

, Collecting tubule - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Extends from the distal convoluted

tubule and connects with the renal pyramids; Reabsorbs Na in exchange

for K and H+; this process is regulated by the hormone aldosterone and is

the site of action for Antidiuretic hormone as well


Juxtaglomerular cells - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔part of Juxtaglomerular apparatus

(JGA) that is a collection of cells that monitor renal pressure and help to

maintain normal GFR through the release of RENIN




When renal perfusion is decreased these cells release renin got help

increase GFR; end result of renin is the release of angiotensin II which

constricts the efferent arteriole and thus increases the pressure to the

glomerulus


Macula Densa - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔part of JGA that is a group of epithelial

cells located in the distal convoluted tubule that are in close contact with

afferent and efferent arterioles




helps regulate GFR
