    breakdown harmful toxins and poisons
    reabsorb water into the blood
    filter the blood and capture the filtrate
    30s
  • Q2
    Which process in the nephron is least selective?
    active transport of salt
    secretion
    filtration
    reabsorption

  • Q3
    What happens to WATER as the blood is processed by the kidney?
    passes into filtrate; almost all excreted in urine
    secreted and excreted
    remains in blood
    passes into filtrate; mostly reabsorbed
    30s

  • Q8
    The target tissue of ADH is
    Collecting Duct
    Loop of Henle
    Glomerulus
    Distal Convoluted Tubule
    30s
  • Q9
    What do the fenestrated capillaries aid in urine production?
    Larger volume can be filtered faster
    Lower blood pressures are tolerated without damage
    Small molecules can get through, but not large ones
    Hormones can reach the collecting duct
    30s
  • Q10
    What is the role of the kidneys in homeostasis?
    removing urea from the blood
    maintaining the water content of the blood
    storage of urine
    producing urine at a constant rate
    30s
  • Q11
    This drains the blood from the glomerular capillaries
    afferent arteriole
    efferent arteriole
    renal artery
    renal vein

    Untreated diabetic person
    Healthy person
    Dehydrated person
    30s
