Back to renal artery
Arterioles
Venules
Venules follwed by renal veins

Which part of the brain has major influence on MICTURITION.
Mid brain
Hypothalamus
Peripheral nervous system
Pons
Pons
Which of the following type of cell is not seen in the glomerular filtration membrane ?
Mesangial cells
Podocyates
Pericytes
Enterocytes
Enterocytes
Bicarbonate reabsorption in proximal tubule,
Occurs primarily in later part of the segment.
Increase during volume contraction.
Increase during hyperventilation.
Options 1 and 3 both are correct.
1+3
Administration of an Angiotensin Converting Enzyme inhibitor (ACE inhibitor) to the patient with acute aretery stenosis ( narrowing) might lead to acute renal failure by
Inhibiting renal tubule pottasium reabsorption
Increasing renal resistance to blood flow.
Causing plasma protein to be excreted in the urine.
Reducing glomerular filtrate rate
Reducing glomerular filtrate rate
On which of the following does aldosterone exert its greatest effect?
Corticle collecting duct.
Glomerulus
Proximal convulated tubule
Thick part of Loop of Henle
Cortical collecting duct
Sodium is actively reabsorbed from the renal tubule in which of the following nephron segments?
Proximal tubule
Distal tubule
Thick part of Loop of Henle
All
All
All is true about urea EXCEPT
Concentration rises in PCT
Is actively secreted by the renal tubule cells.
Protein diet increases its concentration.
Cause osmotic diuresis
It is actively secreted by the renal tubule cells
Which of the following is the correct order
for movement of fluid through the urinary
tract?
◻ (A) Kidney → urethra → bladder → ureter
◻ (B) Kidney → ureter → bladder → urethra
B
How much fluid must be taken in daily in order to maintain adequate kidney function? ◻ (A) 500mL ◻ (B) 1500mL ◻ (C) 5000mL
B
Where does filtration of blood take place within the nephron? ◻ (A) Vasa recta ◻ (B) Peritubular capillaries ◻ (C) Capillaries of glomerulus
C
From the list pick the parts of the nephron that are most important for:
a. Maintaining pH
b. Reabsorption of water
c. action of aldersterone
Bowmans capsule, proximal convoluted tubule, decending loop of henle, ascending loop of henle, distal convoluted tubule, collecting duct
a. proximal and distal tubule
b. Proximal tubule, descending loop if henle, collecting duct
c. Distal tubule, collecting duct
State whether the following are true or false:
(a) reabsorption of sodium ions requires
ATP
(b) reabsorption of water requires input of
energy
(c) aldosterone increases the amount of K+
and decreases the amount of Na+ in the
blood
a) True
b) False - passive because WATER is moving by osmotic gradient caused by the active transport of Na
c) False - increases reabsorption of Na therefore the concentration would be higher in the blood
