Transport mechanisms Flashcards
Primary active transport uses
atp, like na+/K+ pumps
secondary active trabsport can be driven by ion’s
electrochemical gradient
Symporter and antiporters are what type of transport
seconday active tranport
symporters move substance
in same direction
antiporters move substances in
opposite directions
Which part of the loop of henle is relatively impermeable
ascending limb
Acsending limb has little obligatory
water reabsorption
what symporter are found at loop of henle/
Na+, K+, 2CL-
The fluid intake for urine production is highly
variable
Homeostatis require maintenance of
fluid volumes within specific limits
urine concentration varies with
ADH
High intake of fluid can result in
diluted urine of high volumes
Low intake of fluid results in
concentarted urine of volume
What are some abnormalitles of urine
albumin
glucose
Red blood cells
ketone bodies
microbes
Each ureter transports urine by what 3 things?
peristaltic waves,m hydrostatic pressure, and gravity
