Frage 17

Frage
Glomerular filtration rate is the [blank_start]volume[blank_end] of fluid filtered from glomeruli per [blank_start]minute[blank_end]. It is measured in [blank_start]ml[blank_end]/[blank_start]min[blank_end]. GFR depends on [blank_start]Starling[blank_end] force, the [blank_start]surface area[blank_end] of the filtration interface and the [blank_start]permeability[blank_end] of the capillaries. It is regulated by both [blank_start]neural[blank_end] and hormonal input.
Antworten
  • volume
  • minute
  • ml
  • min
  • Starling
  • surface area
  • permeability
  • neural

Frage 18

Frage
Fill in the blanks to describe the four Starling forces that contribute towards glomerular filtration rate. The [blank_start]hydrostatic[blank_end] pressure of the capillaries is [blank_start]higher[blank_end] than the [blank_start]hydrostatic[blank_end] pressure of the Bowman's space. Thus, fluid is inclined to move [blank_start]out of[blank_end] the capillaries. The [blank_start]colloid oncotic[blank_end] pressure in the capillary is [blank_start]higher[blank_end] in the capillaries than in the Bowman's capsule. Thus, fluid is inclined to move [blank_start]into[blank_end] the capillaries. Despite this, the net glomerular filtration pressure is [blank_start]positive[blank_end], so fluid moves [blank_start]out of[blank_end] the capillaries.
Antworten
  • hydrostatic
  • hydrostatic
  • higher
  • out of
  • colloid oncotic
  • higher
  • into
  • positive
  • out of

Frage 19

Frage
If we constrict the afferent arteriole... We [blank_start]reduce[blank_end] the hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries and [blank_start]decrease[blank_end] GFR. If we dilate the afferent arteriole... We [blank_start]increase[blank_end] the hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries and [blank_start]increase[blank_end] GFR. If we constrict the efferent arteriole... We [blank_start]increase[blank_end] the hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries and [blank_start]increase[blank_end] GFR. If we dilate the efferent arteriole... We [blank_start]reduce[blank_end] the hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries and [blank_start]decrease[blank_end] GFR.

Frage 23

Frage
Fill in the blanks below to describe the secretion of organic acids (anions) into the tubule. 1.

[blank_start]Dicarboxylate[blank_end] accumulates in cell by [blank_start]metabolism[blank_end] and the action of [blank_start]Na+[blank_end] coupled transport to drive this co-transport. 3.

Frage 28

Frage
Reabsorption occurs in the [blank_start]proximal tubule[blank_end]. The epithelium here is [blank_start]simple columnar[blank_end] and has a [blank_start]brush-border[blank_end] to increase surface area. This epithelium is dense in [blank_start]mitochondria[blank_end] to supply primary and secondary active transporters. The tubule has [blank_start]Na+[blank_end] coupled cotransporters, a [blank_start]tubular maximum[blank_end] system whereby the membrane can be saturated and specific transporters for [blank_start]glucose[blank_end] and amino acids respectively.
