Q

describe the loop of henley
what isnt in the ascending loop?

A

the major exchange of H2O/salt
no water reabsorp in acsending loop becuase it is impermeable

Q

Describe what the shield of negativity does to the viceral epithelium layer of the golmerulous

A

repells anion plasma proteins

20
Q

Describe hydrostatic pressure

A

pressure exerted by liquid increases filtration

21
Q

Describe Oncotic pressure

A

pressure exerted by presence of unfiltered plasma…prescense of colloids

22
Q

Describe hydrostatic pressure in more depth
based off?
due to?
fluncuations?
compensates with?

A

based of BP
due to the small size of efferent
fluncuations of blood pressure - affect hydrostatic pressure
compensate w autoregulatory

23
Q

Describe Juxtagolmerulo function
Low BP?

A

maintains glomerulous blood pressure at constant rate
low BP =less blood flow = Inc toxic materials
dialates or constricts

24
Q

Describe RAAS
changes in
reg by

A

changes in BP and plasma sodium, regulated by juxtagolmerulous (afferent/convoluted tubules detect salt)

25
Q

Describe how RAAS would compensate for low sodium
less wr
lbv
dec
cells

A

less water retention
low blood vol
decreaseBP - signals Jux cells to release renin

26
Q

Describe Angiotensin II

A

vasoconstriction
proximal convoluted tubules
Aldosterone/ADH

27
Q

Describe Angiotensin I

A

lung and kidney

28
Q

Describe Aldosterone

A

adrenal cortex
distal tubules
reabsorbtion of salt and water
Inc BP/BV

29
Q

Describe ADH
h
inc
inc dp
c
inc

A

hypothalamus
inc water retention
inc distal tubule permeability
constrict blood vessles
inc BP

30
Q

Final results of RAAS?

A

NA BP inc decreased prod of renin

31
Q

T/F every minute, 120ml of low MW substances are tfiltered

A

true

32
Q

How do you differentiate filtrate vs plasma

A

no plasma protein no protein bound substances

34
Q

T/F you reabsorb majority of water/salt from urine

A

Describe Max reabsorption capacity (Tm)

A

transport max
max absorbtion ability for solute in filtrate

39
