Reabsorption of high levels of glucose and amino acids in the filtrate is accomplished by?
secondary active transport
What are the two substances that are routinely found in filtrate but not found in urine products?
Ions and nutrients
What is the liquid that run through filter paper called?
The filtrate.
What will be the color of filtrate after filtering a mixture of copper carbonate and water?
Water must be colorless.
Would a solution of glucose contain electrolytes?
Not if the solution contained only glucose and water.
Glucose is found in glomerular filtrate but NOT in the urine because?
glucose is transported back into the bloodstream
Why are useful molecules like glucose and other nutrients found in the filtrate along with urea and other wastes?
because glucose and other nutrients are small to filtrate through the filtration membrane and glucose is essential to be in the filtration membrane.
Is the proximal convoluted tubule reabsorbs all of the glucose and lactate and amino acids in the filtrate and 65 percent of the Na and water?
True
What happens to the filtrate concentration of water as it descends the tubules?
As the filtrate goes down the hypertonic interstitum of the renal medulla, water leaves the filtrate into the interstitum. As such, the water concentration in the filtrate decreases.
What happens to glucose that enters the nephron along with filtrate?
The glucose that enters the nephron along with the filtrate get absorbed by the glomerulus goes to the proximal convoluted tubule (pct) and again reabsorbed and enters the blood.
Is Proximal convoluted tubule the siteof glucose and amino acid?
Under normal conditions, the proximal convoluted tubule reabsorbs all of the glucose, lactate, and amino acids in the filtrate and 65% of the Na+ and water.
Substances that are absent from the filtrate and urine of healthy individuals?
The two things that might indicate problems in health would be proteins and glucose. Proteins in filtrate or urine would indicate a possible kidney infection and glucose would indicate possible diabetes.
What Transport mechanism is used to remove glucose filtrate the enery needed for that purpose?
Active Transport
Reabsorption of high levels of glucose and amino acids in the filtrate is accomplished by?
secondary active transport
Glucose and amino acids are?
reabsorbed completely unless their concentrations in the filtrate exceed their transport maximum
What should not be found in the glomerular filtrate?
red and white blood cells
What condition allows red blood cells and protein to enter the filtrate?
Conditions which allow the red blood cells and protein to enter the filtrate are renal infections, kidney infections, diabetes, hypothyroidism, jaundice, and Glomerulonephritis. The reasons of red blood cells entering the filtrate can be various and dangerous.
