B)Glomerulus
C)Bowman capsule
D)Loop of Henle
E)Proximal convoluted tubule

Accepted Answer

The proximal convoluted tubule is the tube nearest to the Bowman capsule in the nephron. It is responsible for the reabsorption of water, ions, and nutrients from the filtrate.

-Collecting tubules
A)1
B)2
C)3
D)4
E)5
F)6
G)7

Accepted Answer

The correct order is: 1) Afferent arteriole, 2) Glomerulus, 3) Bowman's capsule, 4) Proximal convoluted tubule, 5) Loop of Henle, 6) Distal convoluted tubule, 7) Collecting tubules.

Question 4

As the aldosterone concentration increases, the amount of potassium reabsorbed into the blood increases.

Accepted Answer

As the aldosterone concentration increases, the amount of potassium excreted from the body increases. Aldosterone promotes the reabsorption of sodium ions from the filtrate in the renal tubules, which leads to the secretion of potassium ions into the tubules for excretion in the urine.

Question 13

Osmosis in the kidney relies on the availability of and proper function of aquaporins.

Accepted Answer

Aquaporins are membrane proteins that allow for the rapid diffusion of water across cell membranes. In the kidney, aquaporins play a crucial role in concentrating urine by allowing the reabsorption of water from the filtrate in the renal tubules. Without the proper function of aquaporins, osmosis in the kidney would be impaired.

Question 14

Starting with the afferent arteriole, place the parts of the nephron in correct anatomical order, beginning with the number 1.
-Bowman capsule
A)1
B)2
C)3
D)4
E)5
F)6
G)7

Accepted Answer

The Bowman's capsule is the starting point of the filtration process in the kidneys, where blood is first filtered, making it the first step in the urinary system.
