PHYSIOEX FOR FINAL LAB EXAM 2024 WITH 100% CORRECT ANSWERS What would happen to urine production if the afferent arteriole radius decreased? - correct answer urine production would decrease (less blood to the glomerulus so less blood is filtered) What would happen to urine production if efferent arteriole was constricted? - correct answer urine production would increase (blood remains in glomerulus longer so there is more time for filtration) What nerves constrict the Afferent Arteriole...

Which statement regarding renal function is true? A. Glomeruli are far more permeable to H2O and salt than other capillaries B. The collecting tubule reabsorbs sodium and secretes potassium in response to antidiuretic hormone (ADH) C. The collecting tubule is permeable to H2O only in the presence of aldosterone D.
