Q

What drives water out of the descending limb and into the renal medulla?

A

Na+ pumped out of the thick ascending limb increases the osmotic concentration slightly in the medulla, causing water to osmose out.

Q

How does ADH regulate water osmosis?

Targets the PCT and collecting duct.

A

Q

Water follows sodium. Explain this statement in relation to countercurrent exchange in the nephron

A

Na+ is actively pumped out of the thick ascending limb, increasing solute conc in the interstitial space. Since water is permeable

Q

What effect does a diuretic have on the nephron?

Does it serve the same function as ADH?

Q

Will increased ADH lead to an increase/decrease of blood pressure? How?
