Summarize reabsorption in the proximal tubule?
Selective reabsorption of nutrients from filtrate back into the blood by active and passive transport.
How does sodium reabsorption affect water reabsorption?
If sodium reabsorption increases, water reabsorption increases as well.
When the kidneys return salts and water to the blood it is called?
Reabsorption via a process called "secretion".
What is obligatory reabsorption?
the reabsorption of water from pct,alh in nephron which is not influenced by adh.
What happens during tubular reabsorption of drugs?
During tubular secretion, organic ions are actively transported against their concentration gradients. Certain drugs are excreted through the anion transport system of the cation transport system. The coadministration of drugs that inhibit the secretion of any of these transport systems can help increase the half-life of the excreted drug.
What are the functions of parathormone?
It stimulates the reabsorption of calcium, the conservation of calcium by the kidneys, the reabsorption of phosphates.
What is obligatory water reabsorption?
the reabsorption of water from pct,alh in nephron which is not influenced by adh.
What are the three basic process that occur in the nephron?
Filtration, tubular reabsorption, tubular secretion
What happens if the reabsorption of sodium by the renal tubule is inhibited?
reabsorption of water by renal tubule decreases
Materials are returned to the blood from the filtrate by which of the following processes?
selective reabsorption
Why is the reabsorption of certain materials in the kidney is important to your health?
why reabsorption of certain materials in the kidneys is important for the health
Which hormone is responsible for facultative water reabsorption in the collecting ducts?
ADH is the hormone responsible for facultative water reabsorption.
