What is the larger and longer of the two lymphatic collecting ducts?

The larger and longer of the two lymphatic collecting ducts is the Thoracic Duct. The other collecting duct is the Right Lymphatic Duct.
There are many lymphatic vessels in the body, all of which, like the blood vessels, start as tiny capillaries and gradually get larger as they get nearer to the heart, until they eventually merge into one of the two collecting ducts.

The site at which ADH is most active?
collecting ducts
What does ADH make the kidneys do?
Increases how much water the collecting ducts in the kidney reabsorb.
What do dilated intrahepatic bile ducts indicate?
Dilated intrahepatic bile ducts usually indicate an abnormal blockage downstream. Intrahepatic bile ducts are the small bile ducts in the liver that collect the liver cells' bile for transport to the larger bile ducts that become a single bile duct.
How is urea reabsorbed?
40-50 % of filtered urea is reabsorbed through passive diffusion in the Proximal Convoluted Tubules. Loop of Henle, Distal Convoluted Tubules and Cortical Collecting Ducts are impermeable to urea. But secretion of urea happens in descending Loop of Henle (This helps to maintain the osmotic gradient in the medulla of the Kidney). There is also re-absorption of urea in the medullary collecting ducts.
Where does secretion occur?
Tubular secretion occurs in the distal convoluted tubes. The secretion also happens in the collecting ducts and also in the proximal convoluted tubule.
What are the two collecting duct that drain the lymphatic trunks?
Thoracic duct and Right lymphatic duct.The two collecting ducts that drain the lymphatic system are the right and left subclavian veins.Thoracic duct and the right lymphatic duct.
Lymphatic fluid are directly emptied into what?
The lymphatic fluid is usually directly emptied into the lymphatic ducts.
Where does ADH act on the nephron?
collecting duct (system) and late distal tubule
Does diuretics work on the collecting ducts?
Diuretics work in the region of the collecting ducts, but on the ducts themselves. They inhibit ADH from causing water to be reabsorbed in the distal tubules and that produces more urine output.
What is reabsorbed in the collecting ducts of the kidneys?
yes
Trace the sequence of fluid flow through blood vessel to blood vessel by way of the lymphatic system?
The sequence of fluid flow is blood capillaries.... interstitial space or interstitial fluid..... lymphatic capillaries.... lymphatic vessels.... lymphatic ducts..... junction of the internal jugular and subclavian veins. Then what helps this whole sequence is the skeletal muscle pump and the respiratory pump.
What are the two main ducts of the lymph vessels?
Thoracic and Right Lymphatic
What system assists the cardiovascular system by collecting excess tissue fluid?
The lymphatic system removes excess fluid from tissues. The lymph system is a network of organs, lymph nodes, lymph ducts, and lymph vessels that make and move lymph from tissues to the bloodstream. The lymph system is a major part of the body's immune system.
The site at which ADH is most active?
collecting ducts
Which structures drains into the collecting ducts?
Loop of henle
Renal pyramids are?
collecting ducts and uriniferous tubules
What makes collecting ducts permeable to water?
yes
