Is water moved from the kidney tubules into the blood by osmosis?
yes it does
What region of the kidney you would find glomerular capsules?
The bowman's capsule collects the filtrate and it enters the tubules. All glucose is reabsorbed immediately into the blood capillaries. As the rest of the filtrate travels through the tubules water and salts needed by the body are reabsorbed into the blood capillaries.yo yo
What is the Blood supply that directly receives substances from the tubular cells in urinary system?
You have portal system of blood circulation in case of kidney tubules. In portal system, you have afferent arterioles, divided to form primary capillaries and capillaries reunite to form efferent arterioles. The efferent arterioles again divide to form the secondary capillaries. So you have secondary capillaries, there in urinary system, to receive the substances, directly from tubular cells.
Rising blood levels of aldosterone cause the kidney tubules to?
To reabsorb more sodium and some tme that can lead to an edema (oedema)
How does low blood pressure effect the flow of fluid through the renal tubules?
Low blood pressure means the blood flow through the circulation system has been delayed. As a result, blood flow goes through the Renal tubules will be effected. Blood goes through that tube won't be much. Hence, Blood will be slowed when it passes by the renal tubules.
The movement of substances from the blood into the renal tubules is called?
SecretionSecretion is the process by which substances move into the distal and collecting tubules from blood in the capillaries around these tubules.
What is tubular kidney disease?
Tubular kidney disease-- Disease of the kidney that affect the tubules, the part of the kidney that allows certain substances to be reabsorbed back into the blood
Is water moved from the kidney tubules into the blood by osmosis?
yes it does
What are the three phases involved in Formation of urine in kidney tubules?
The three phases involved in the formation of urine in the kidney tubules are : 1.Simple filtration- large molecules like blood cells and plasma proteins are unable to filter through the first part of the tubules and so stay in the blood. 2.Selective reabsorption- this is where those substances needed by the body, like sodium potassium ,are reabsorbed in the kidney to maintain the correct amount of fluid and substances. 3.Secretion- substances that are not required by the body and foreign materials, like drugs, are then secreted from the blood into the urine.
What is the function of the glomerulus and the bowmans capsule?
The glomerulus and bowmans capsule are part of the excretory system, and they are found in the nephron of a kidney. The function of the glomerulus and the bowman's capsule is to filter the substances in the blood. The glomerulus is a tangle of capillaries which have little slits in them. Water, salts, glucose and urea pass through the slits into the bowmans capsule, which leads to kidney tubules. Then, as the kidney tubules are surrounded by capillaries, the useful substances (all glucose, some salts, most water) are re-absorbed, and only urea and some salts carry on to be excreted.
Why do you think capillaries surround the long tubules of nephron?
The kidney's function in filtration. The renal tubules located with in the kidney's and also known as nephrons, are the functioning units of the kidney's. Blood carries nutrients and waste. The renal tubules are surrounded by a capillary network so the blood can expel the waste material that is collects from the body. the renal tubules also replace nutrients and water that is still needed back into the capillaries.
How does osomosis occur in the human body?
The reabsorption of water from the kidney tubules back into the blood depends on osmosis.
When poisonous substances are in the blood they are absorbed by what?
liver & kidney

What is glomerular kidney disease?
Glomerular kidney disease-- Disease of the kidney that affects the glomeruli, the part of the kidney that filters certain substances out of the blood.
Aquaporins are believed to be present in red blood cells and kidney tubules but very few other cells in the body?
False
What Organ removes nitrogenous wastes from the blood of fish?
The malpighian tubules are the organs used to remove nitrogenous waste from a grasshopper. These tubules also regulate the internal ionic balance of the grasshopper.
