,\.Which of the following is the correct order of blood flow through the renal
corpuscle? - ANSWERS✔-Afferent arteriole, glomerulus, efferent arteriole
\.The epithelial cells of Bowman's capsule are called _________________ -
ANSWERS✔-podocytes
\.The glomerulus is a tuft of capillaries in the renal compartment and Bowman's
capsule is part of the blood vascular compartment. (true or false) - ANSWERS✔-
false
The glomerulus is a tuft of capillaries in the blood vascular compartment.
Bowman's capsule is part of the renal compartment.
\.***This is an example of a test question***
Water moves from Bowman's capsule into the glomerular capillaries because the:
- ANSWERS✔-osmotic pressure generated by plasma proteins is higher in the
capillaries than in Bowman's capsule
\.The peritubular capillary is an extension of the efferent arteriole which wraps
around the ______________. - ANSWERS✔-Proximal convoluted tubule
, \.Urine has a ____________ ion concentration in the cortex of the kidney when it
is in the ____________________________. - ANSWERS✔-low, proximal
convoluted tubule
\.In the proximal convoluted tubule water and most ions follow a
___________________ route, meaning they leave the lumen by passing between
the tight junctions of the epithelial cells. - ANSWERS✔-Paracellular
\.When Na+, glucose and amino acids move in across the epithelial cells of the
proximal convoluted tubule, they are reabsorbed by the ________________. -
ANSWERS✔-Peritubular capillary

GLUT 2 is a glucose transporter that permits glucose transport by facilitated
diffusion. You would expect to
find this protein in: - ANSWERS✔-basilar membranes of epithelial cells in the
proximal convoluted tubule
