Which statement is NOT true about blood flow to the kidney?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Blood flow to the normal kidney should be forward throughout the cardiac cycle, and the interlobar arteries are within the renal parenchyma; therefore, answer "a" is correct. The kidney normally has high metabolic demands to fulfill its function as a filtering organ; therefore, answer "c" also is correct. Chronic renal failure causes an increase in vascular resistance as a result of tissue edema and interstitial fluid. As vascular resistance increases, diastolic flow decreases; therefore, answer "d" is also correct.
