Question

Part A Which of the following is reabsorbed in the proximal tubule, leading to a reduction in the overall filtrate volume? Select all that apply interstitial fluid solutes urea water SubmitR Request Answer Part B Which of the following characteristics describes the thin segment of the ascending limb of the loop of Henle? impermeable to H2O and NaCI permeable to H2O, impermeable to NaCl mpermeable to H20, permeable to NaCI permeable to H2O and NaCI Submit Request Answer - Part C In which section of the nephron does the filtrate have a higher osmolarity than the blood when it enters and lower osmolarity than the blood when it leaves? ascending limb of the loop of Henle descending limb of the loop of Henle distal tubule proximal tubule SubmitR Request Answer

Explanation / Answer

Part A. Solutes, water.

PCT reaabsorbs glucose,amino acids,hormones, Na+ and K ions and water is absorbed by osmosis.

Part B. Impermeable to water and permeable to NaCl.

Thin segment of ascending limb is impermeable to water but permeable to ions.

Part C. Ascending limb of loop of Henele.

Part D. Transport of NaCl in the thick segment of the ascending limb of loop of Henele.

Wider part of ascending limb reasons inorganic ions by active transport.

Part E.

False.

TRUE.

TRUE.

FALSE.
