Exam 4 Flashcards

1
Q

Natriuretic VS Diuretic

A

Natriuretic = increase Na+ secretion (increase water secretion)
Diuretic = increases urine volume
(all natriuretics are diuretics but not all diuretics are natriuretics)

Q

What is the purpose of two capillary beds in the nephron?

A

The capillary bed at the renal corpuscle exchanges glomerular filtrate.
The other capillary bed is all along the nephron and exchanges O2 and CO2 as well as reabsorption and secretion of things that were not filtered at the renal corpuscle.
