renal 2 slide 33-56 (more A & P) Flashcards
- one per nephron
- regulation of filtrate formation and blood pressure
- modified portions distal ascending loop of Henle
- afferent arteriole
juxtaglomerular apparatus
-synthesize, store, release renin
-act as mechanoreceptors that sense blood pressure
-enlarged smooth muscles cells of arteriole
granular cells (juxtaglomerular/JG cells
-chemoreceptors that sense NaCl content of filtrate
-tall closely packed cells of ascending loop of Henle
Macula densa
-pass signals between macula densa and granular cells
-interconnected with gap junctions
extraglomerular mesangial cells
the filtration membrane consist of what 3 things
- fenestrated endothelium of the glomerular capillaries
- Visceral membrane of the glomerular capsule(podocytes with foot processes and filtration)
- Gel-like basement membrane (fused basal laminae of the two other layers)
the filtration membrane’s, _________charged basement membrane repels large anions such as ______ ______.
negatively charged basement membrane repels large anions such as plasma proteins
the filtration membrane allows passage of water and solutes smaller than most plasma____. the fenestrations prevent filtration of ____ ____.
proteins
blood cells
The basement membranes has a negative charge. What does this repel?
negative proteins
In the filtration membrane, the flow from plasma through the basement membrane passes through? in order of flow
________
________
________
plasma
- capillary endothelium
- basement membrane
- foot processes of podocyte of glomerular capsule
filtrate is made up of blood plasma minus ______and_____ _____.
proteins and blood cells.

- contains metabolic waste and unneeded substances
urine
Name the three major renal processes?
Glomerular filtration
tubular reabsorption
tubular secretion
a passive mechanical process driven by high hydrostatic pressure from afferent arterioles
glomerular filtration
the net filtration pressure is determined by ?
3 things
