Nephrons

Question 1

What’s the three stages of a nephron

Answer 1

1-ultrafiltration
2-selective reabsorption
3-urine formation

Question 2

What is the function of the bow and capsule

Answer 2

Collects the filtrate for the glomerulus

Question 3

What’s the glomerulus

Answer 3

A bunch a capillaries

Question 4

What’s the proximal convoluted tubule

Answer 4

Where selective reabsorption of glucose sodium ions and water in the blood

Question 5

Distal convoluted tubule

Answer 5

Where additional selective reabsorption of ions takes place

Question 6

What’s the loop of henle

Answer 6

Where selective reabsorption of water occurs

Question 7

What is the order of a nephron

Answer 7

1st- glomerulus
2nd-Bowman’s capsule
3rd-Proximal convoluted tubule
4th-Loop of henle
5th-Distal convoluted tubule
6th-collecting ducts

Question 8

What’s the two other sections of the loop of henle

Answer 8

Ascending and descending

Question 9

What’s the ascending loop of henle

Answer 9

Pumps chlorine and sodium out of the nephrons

Question 10

What’s the descending loop of henle

Answer 10

Water leaves the nephron to be reabsorbed

Question 11

What is an animal such has a camal adapted to survive hot conditions

Answer 11

Long loop of henle to reabsorb as much water in the body as possible
