Final Exam Practice Questions- From TA's Flashcards
An isolated kidney has been maintained at normal perfusion and renal arterial BP. What happens at the AFFERENT arterioles when exposed to a sudden INCREASE in renal arterial pressure?
Vasoconstriction and DECREASED secretion of renin
When would you see an elevated [urine protein] : [urine creatinine] ratio?
Glomerulopathy
Where is water reabsorbed in the kidney?
Proximal tubule
MCD
Distal tubule
DLOH
Where is water NOT reabsorbed in the kidney?
ALOH
Which local tissue factor does NOT promote vasodilation?
Gastrin
Which local tissue factors DO promote vasodilation?
K+
CO2
H+
The G-cell secretion of gastrin ________ in response to AA in the lumen of the glandular stomach.
The G-cell secretion of gastrin INCREASES in response to AA in the lumen of the glandular stomach.
What is a potent stimulus for duodenal secretion of CCK? What is the potent response?
Stimulus: Increased duodenal luminal [FFA]
Response: Gallbladder contraction
What is an incretin?
Incretins are polypeptide hormones that stimulate B-cell secretion of insulin
In general, what is the most significant way secondary secretions differ from primary secretions (produced at acini)?
Cl- is LOWER and HCO3- is HIGHER in secondary secretions
What would cause the greatest INCREASE in the secretory activity of pancreatic acini?
Increased secretion of CCK (by small intestine) AND
Increased secretion of ACh (by efferent neurons at pancreatic acini)
Ruminal motility ________ as the luminal VFA increases.
Ruminal motility DECREASES as the luminal VFA increases.
True or false: Receptors for CCK are found in the GI Tract and Brain.
True
True or false: Elevated plasma pancreatic enzyme concentration may be a result of Kidney Disease
True
True or false: Since mast cells secrete histamine, mast cell tumors can cause GI Tract ulcerations.
True
