because lumen carries biochemical processes for the cells.
Which of the following needles has the widest lumen?
Lumen and candlepower are not the same thing. Lumen measure the of light surrounds, like you would light a room with a lamp. Candlepower measures the light in a beam, like a flashlight beam. With a few assumptions you can convert lumen to candlepower. With these assumptions 360 lumen would be 28.6 candlepower.
The lumen is the size of the inside of the blood vessel. The type of blood vessel that has a lumen approximately the same diameter as a single red blood cell is a capillary.
The digestive system features lumen in the gastrointestinal tract. Absorption is the passage of digested end products from the lumen of the GI tract through the mucosal cells into the blood or lymph.
it will increase osmolarity of the filtrate
The blood vessel that carries blood to the glomerulus is called the afferent vessel. But the glomerulus is not close ended nad the vessel that leaves it, called the efferent vessel, carries on beside the nephron and collects the components that are reabsorbed.
Lumen
Double-lumen PICC lines come in two colors. Red is the blood access lumen or arterial lumen and blue is the blood return lumen or venous lumen. Despite the names, neither lumen is leads to an artery, but both lead into a vein.

Lumen - band - was created in 1998.
Lumen Eclipse was created in 2005.
Lumen Pierce was created in 2010.
Lumen Gentium was created in 1964.
The arterial lumen is the opening of the artery. As an analogy, the toilet paper roll lumen is what you put the spindle through.
The cells lining the proximal tubules of the nephrons have a highly folded cell membrane on the lumen side of the tubule made of microvilli. This is referred to as a brush border and is important in increasing the surface area for reabsorption of components of the filtrate as it passes down the nephron.
