Match the following: Overflow incontinence.

Which of the following materials is NOT reabsorbed in the nephron loop? water glucose chloride ions sodium ions

The reabsorption of sodium in the DCT is regulated primarily by __________. aldosterone and ANP aldosterone parathyroid hormone renin and angiotensin

How are nutrient molecules such as glucose and amino acids reabsorbed through the apical surfaces of the tubule epithelia? by osmosis by secondary active transport by primary active transport by simple diffusion

Filtrate in a typical healthy nephron will NEVER include __________. glucose amino acids and fatty acids K+ and Na+ ions blood cells and proteins

Which of the following is NOT a function of the kidneys? to metabolize vitamin D to its active form to carry out gluconeogenesis during prolonged fasting to regulate body fluid by controlling excretion from sweat glands to maintain the proper balance between water and salts and between acids and bases

The __________ collect(s) urine, which drains continuously from the papillae; the urine is then emptied into the __________. calyces; renal pelvis renal pyramids; renal pelvis renal pelvis; calyces renal pyramids; calyces

Where in the nephron does most solute reabsorption occur? collecting duct glomerulus distal convoluted tubule proximal convoluted tubule

Capsular hydrostatic pressure is the chief force pushing water and solutes out of the blood and across the filtration membrane. True False

Approximately 80% of the energy used for active transport is devoted to the reabsorption of __________. water potassium sodium glucose

Under normal conditions, the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) reabsorbs all of the glucose, lactate, and amino acids in the filtrate and 65% of the Na+ and water. True False

Upon reaching what point in the nephron is reabsorption (1) dependent upon the body's needs at the time and (2) regulated by hormones? proximal convoluted tubule distal convoluted tubule ascending limb of the loop of Henle descending limb of the loop of Henle

The ascending limb of the loop of Henle is permeable to water. True False

External chemicals that enhance urinary output are called __________.

The __________ is a skeletal muscle under conscious control that allows urine to leave the bladder. internal urethral sphincter external urethral orifice prostatic urethra external urethral sphincter

Which of the following is NOT one of the things that must happen for micturition to occur? The internal urethral sphincter must open. The external urethral sphincter must open. The detrusor muscle must contract. The extrusor muscle must relax.
