Answer 14

water reabsorption

K+, H+ excretion

Question 15

ADH increases…

Answer 15

water permeability of collecting duct to reabsorb more water

(salt) Glomerulosa

Question 19

Adrenal medulla secretes..

Answer 19

epi & norepi

Question 20

What is reabsorbed from the descending loop?

Answer 20

Water - filtrate is descending into area of increasing concentration, so it becomes hypotonic to its surroundings and water is pushed out into vasa recta

Question 21

What is reabsorbed from the ascending loop?

Answer 21

Na+ and Cl- filtrate is ascending into area of decreasing concentration, so it becomes hypertonic to its surroundings and na/cl ions are pushed out into vasa recta

Question 22

How are ions reabsorbed from the thick ascending/diluting segment?

Answer 22

active transport with mitochondria

Skeletal muscle is…

Answer 25

multi-nucleated
striated
voluntary

Question 26

What type of muscle can be myogenic?

Answer 26

Both smooth & cardiac

Question 27

Red muscle

Answer 27

slow twitch, more myoglobin & mitochondria

Question 28

White muscle

Answer 28

fast twitch, less myoglobin

Question 29

How do steroid hormones cross the cell membrane?

Answer 29

Freely diffuse - they are cholesterol derivatives

Question 30

Sympathetic response on vessels

Answer 30

vasodilates AND vasoconstricts (just different parts of the body)
