37
Q

- HCO3-
- Nonvolatile acids
- Volatile bases
- Ca+

A

Nonvolatile acids

38
Q

In extracellular fluid the most abundant anion is:
Na+, Cl-, K+, HPO42-, HCO3-

A

Cl- the primary anion in the extracellular fluid, helping to maintain osmotic pressure, acid-base balance, and fluid balance. It works in conjunction with sodium (the most abundant cation) to regulate these processes.

39
Q

What is Natriuresis

A

The process of excreting sodium (Na⁺) in the urine. The kidneys regulate the amount of sodium in the body, typically in response to changes in blood volume, blood pressure, or the osmotic balance.

Helps in maintaining the balance of sodium in the body, contributing to overall fluid and electrolyte homeostasis.

40
Q

In intracellular fluid the most abundant cation is:
Na+, Cl-, K+, HPO42-, HCO3-

A

K+ It plays a crucial role in maintaining cell function, including regulating the resting membrane potential, nerve transmission, and muscle contraction. It is maintained at high concentrations inside cells compared to the extracellular fluid, where sodium (Na⁺) is the predominant cation.

41
Q

In intracellular fluid the most abundant anion is: Na+ Cl- K+ HPO42-, HCO3-

A

HPO42- various cellular processes, including energy metabolism (as part of ATP), signalling, and the formation of cell membranes. The concentration of phosphate is much higher inside cells compared to the extracellular fluid.

42
Q

In extracellular fluid, the most abundant cation is: Na+ Cl- K+ HPO42- HCO3-

A

Na+ primary cation in the extracellular fluid and plays a key role in maintaining fluid balance, osmotic pressure, and proper nerve and muscle function. It is critical for regulating blood volume and blood pressure, as well as in the movement of fluids between compartments in the body.

43
Q

Which is used to promote Na reabsorption by the kidneys?

A

Aldosterone

44
Q

This imbalance results when systemic arterial blood HCO3- levels drop significantly (below 22 mEq/l):
Metabolic acidosis
Metabolic alkalosis
Respiratory acidosis
Respiratory alkalosis

A

Metabolic acidosis

45
Q

In partial compensation:
- pH is brought into the normal range
- systemic arterial blood is lower than 7.35
- systemic arterial blood is higher than 9.5
- pH >5.5
- pH <2.5

A

Systemic arterial blood is lower than 7.35 - the body’s compensatory mechanisms (respiratory or renal) try to bring the pH to normal, but the pH remains outside the normal range. Still either acidic or alkaline, depending on the initial disturbance, but not yet normal

46
Q

The response of the body to decreasing blood pressure will not cause:
- Dehydration
- Formation of angiotensin II
- Stimulate the kidneys to secrete rennin
- Formation of ADH
- Increased vasoconstriction

A

Dehydration - result in inadequate fluid intake or excessive fluid loss, not direct consequence of low blood pressure

47
Q

Which of the following is a way angiotensin II affects the kidneys?
- increases GFR
- decrease GFR
- enhance reabsorption of certain ions
- stimulates the release of aldosterone

A

It can increase GFR

48
Q

The proximal convoluted tubules reabsorb what percentage of filtered water?
- 25%
- 50%
- 65%
- 80%
- 90%

A

65%

49
Q

This is a nephron process that results in a substance in blood entering the already formed filtrate:
- reabsorption
- filtration
- secretion
- excretion

A

Secretion - process by which substances are actively transported from the blood into the already formed filtrate in the renal tubules, leading to their excretion in urine

50
Q

What is the correct order of blood flow?

A

Renal artery-Segmental artery- Interlobular artery- Peritubular capillaries-Afferent arterioles

(Blood flow through the kidney begins at RA, which branches into SA, then the IA, which further branches into smaller arterioles that lead to the AA. The blood then flows through the glomerulus and into the peritubular capillaries)

51
Q

How much of the total volume of body fluid is intracellular fluid?
- 10%, 50%, 1/3, 2/3, 99%

A

2/3

52
Q

- calcitriol

A

Glucogenesis

53
Q

This is when a substance passes from the fluid in the tubular lumen through the apical membrane then across the cytosol into the interstitial fluid:
- paracellular reabsorption
- transcellular reabsorption
- apical reabsorption
- basolateral reabsorption
- active transport

A

Transcellular reabsorption
