Biol 373 Unit 4a || All Accurately Answered.


Cortical Nephron correct answers Functional unit of the kidney, almost completely in cortex


Cortex correct answers outer layer of the kidney


Collecting Ducts correct answers Long processes, after filtration of blood has happened


Medulla correct answers Inside part of the kidney


Renal pelvis correct answers what we get rid of dumps here into ureter


Ureter correct answers travels through here to be stored until its eliminated


Juxtamedullary nephron correct answers Close to the diving line between cortex and medulla
mostly deeper into medulla


Renal artery correct answers Goes into the kidney


Renal vein correct answers Come out of the kidney


Glomerulus correct answers Important in filtration, each bulges in the vascular supply to an
nephron, special knot of capillaries


Vasa recta correct answers Straight capillary runs along it
- Around the loop in juxanephron

, Ascending Limb correct answers Flipped other way passing close to afferent and efferent
arterioles close to glumarious


Peritubular Capillaries correct answers Wrapped around ascending and descending groups of
hence, tubular elements to heart
- all around proximal tubule, distal tubule and cortical nephron and loop of henle


Conventional Circulation correct answers Artery-> Arteriole-> capillary -> venue -> vein ->
heart
( normal systemic circulation)


Venous portal system correct answers Artery-> Arteriole-> Capillary -> Venule-> capillary ->
Venule-> Vein-> Heart


Nephrons correct answers Two capillary beds glamorous, particular capillaries (not venous portal
system)


Cortical Nephron correct answers Abdominal aorta-> renal artery-> Branches of smaller arteries-
> afferent arterioles-> 1) Glomerular capillaries-> efferent arteriole-> 2) Peritubular capillaries->
venues-> veins->... renal vein-> vena cava


Juxtamedullary nephron correct answers Afferent arteriole-> glomerular capillaries-> efferent
arteriole-> Peritubular capillaries/vasa recta-> veinules-> veins...


Filtration correct answers Movement of water/solutes from blood into tubules
(Glomerulus->Capsule->Proximal tubule-> -> so on)
- only occurs in renal corpuscles
- once in tubules , filtrate will be excreted unless reabsorbed
