Exam 4 Flashcards
Movement of substances from the blood in the glomerulus into the capsular space.
Glomerular filtration
Movement of substances from tubular fluid back into the blood.
Tubular reabsorption:
Movement of substances from the blood into the tubular fluid.
Tubular secretion:
Modified smooth muscle cells around glomerular capillaries:
Mesangial cells. These cells regulate blood flow through the glomerulus by acting like precapillary sphincters.
Bowman’s capsule hydrostatic pressure:
Opposes filtration.
Bowman’s capsule osmotic pressure:
Favors filtration (negligible under normal conditions).
Glomerular capillary hydrostatic pressure
Favors filtration, equal to GC blood pressure.
Glomerular osmotic pressure:
Opposes filtration due to plasma proteins
Movement back into plasma is?
Reabsorption. This process involves the movement of solutes and water back into the plasma from kidney tubules.
Virtual measure of solute removal by kidney:
Clearance
Movement into kidney tubules
Secretion.
Elimination of solutes and water:
Excretion
The countercurrent multiplier in cortical nephrons generate an osmotic gradient that results in reabsorb of water from the tubules producing concentrated urine.

True or False
False
Movement of broken-down food into capillaries
Absorption
Breakdown of foods into smaller components (e.g., monomers)
Digestion:
Movement of digestive substances (e.g., enzymes) into the lumen of intestines
Secretion:
Movement of food through the digestive tract
Motility:
Which hormone is released from the duodenum and jejunum in response to glucose, fats, acid, or distension of the duodenum?
Glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP)
Which hormone is released from the stomach in response to proteins and protein digestion products, stomach distension, and parasympathetic input?
Gastrin
: The oral preparatory phase occurs when food enters the mouth, and the tongue pushes it against the soft palate. This phase occurs before the oral transport phase, where the tongue pushes the food toward the oropharynx.
