exam
The RAA responds when blood pressure rises above normal limits.
(false b/c the RAA responds when blood pressure drops below normal limits.) - answers✔✔Each of the
following statements are true regarding control over the GFR except:
Elevated levels of ADH will lead to dilute urine.
(false b/c DECREASED levels of ADH will lead to dilute urine) - answers✔✔Which of the following
statements is false regarding ADH?
they originate deep in the cortex (false b/c they originate superficially in the cortex) -
answers✔✔Cortical nephrons are characterized by the following except:
edema - answers✔✔Excess accumulation of fluid within the interstitial compartment is characteristic of
which of the following fluid imbalances?
Na+ and water are reabsorbed in equal proportions
(The loop of Henle reabsorbed more Na+ and Cl- than water) - answers✔✔Reabsorption in the loop of
Henle is characterized by the following except:
Metabolic disorders are a result of a change in plasma HCO3- levels
Respiratory disorders are a result of a change in plasma CO2 levels
Normal blood pH = 7.35-7.45 - answers✔✔Which of the following is/are true regarding acid-base
disorders? (mark all that apply)
Associated with a poor prognosis as it often leads to CKD
(the prognosis is good when underlying cause is treated) - answers✔✔Acute postinfectious
glomerulonephritis is characterized by the following except:
