- Q1In each nephron of the kidney, the glomerulus and Bowman's capsule...reabsorb ions and mineralsbreakdown harmful toxins and poisonsreabsorb water into the bloodfilter the blood and capture the filtrate30s
- Q2Which process in the nephron is least selective?active transport of saltsecretionfiltrationreabsorption30s
- Q3What happens to WATER as the blood is processed by the kidney?passes into filtrate; almost all excreted in urinesecreted and excretedremains in bloodpasses into filtrate; mostly reabsorbed30s
- Q4What happens to GLUCOSE as the blood is processed by the kidney?passes into filtrate; almost all excreted in urinesecreted and excretedpasses into filtrate; mostly reabsorbedremains in blood30s
- Q5What happens to PLASMA PROTEIN as the blood is processed by the kidney?secreted and excretedpasses into filtrate; mostly reabsorbedremains in bloodpasses into filtrate; almost all excreted in urine30s
- Q6What happens to RED BLOOD CELLS as the blood is processed by the kidney?passes into filtrate; mostly reabsorbedpasses into filtrate; almost all excreted in urineremains in bloodsecreted and excreted30s
- Q7What happens to UREA as the blood is processed by the kidney?passes into filtrate; mostly reabsorbedremains in bloodsecreted and excretedpasses into filtrate; almost all excreted in urine30s
- Q8The target tissue of ADH isCollecting DuctLoop of HenleGlomerulusDistal Convoluted Tubule30s
- Q9What do the fenestrated capillaries aid in urine production?Larger volume can be filtered fasterLower blood pressures are tolerated without damageSmall molecules can get through, but not large onesHormones can reach the collecting duct30s
- Q10What is the role of the kidneys in homeostasis?removing urea from the bloodmaintaining the water content of the bloodstorage of urineproducing urine at a constant rate30s
- Q11This drains the blood from the glomerular capillariesafferent arterioleefferent arteriolerenal arteryrenal vein30s
- Q12If you found high amount of WATER in urine, it would probably be from aUntreated diabetic personHealthy personDehydrated person30s
- Q13If you found high amount of GLUCOSE (SUGAR) in urine, it would probably be from aHealthy personUntreated diabetic personDehydrated person30s
- Q14Why is ADH secreted?too much urea in the bloodtoo much water in the bloodlack of water in the bloodlack of urea in the blood30s
- Q15There are 2 processes that the kidney does. This one is NONselectiveReabsorptionUltrafiltrationSecretionFiltration30s
