1x10^6 - Answers there are approximately __________ nephrons in a healthy human kidney
afferent arterioles, glomerular capillary, efferent arterioles - Answers list the anatomical structures in
the correct order as they are encountered by the blood itself during the process of filtration?
proximal convoluted tubule - Answers bowman's capsule is connected to the beginning of the
nephron - Answers the function unit of the kidney is the
renal tubule into the peritubular capillaries - Answers during the process of renal reabsorption, fluid and
solutes move from
caffeine dilates the afferent arteriole - Answers caffeine consumption leads to increased urine formation
you might propose that
afferent constriction and efferent dilation - Answers when you are in the desert and dehydrating, which
of the following arteriole combinations would benefit you the most?
excretion and regulation - Answers what are two primary functions of the kidney?
glomerular capillaries and bowman's capsule - Answers what are the components of the renal corpuscle
1) proximal convoluted tubule
2) descending limb of the loop of henle
3) ascending limb of the loop of henle
4) distal convoluted tubules
5) collecting duct - Answers starting with the renal corpuscle, list the components of the renal tubule as
they are encountered by filtrate
when the afferent arteriole constricts this reduces blood flow in the glomerulus - Answers describe the
effect of decreasing the afferent arteriole radius on glomerular capillary pressure and filtration rate
vasodilation of the afferent arteriole increased the pressure - Answers describe the effect of increasing
the afferent arteriole radius on glomerular capillary pressure and filtration rate
vasoconstriction of the efferent arteriole reduces flow out of the glomerular capillaries - Answers
describe the effect of decreasing the efferent arteriole radius on glomerular capillary pressure and
filtration rate
if the efferent arteriole were to vasodilate, this would drain blood out from the glomerular capillaries
and reduce GFR - Answers describe the effect of increasing the efferent radius on glomerular capillary
pressure and filtration rate
