What is the difference between filtration and reabsorbtion?
Filtration Filtration is accomplished by the movement of fluids from the blood into the bowmans capsule. = Reabsorption = = Reabsorption involves the selective transfer of essential solutes and = water back into the blood.
What is the primary site of tubular reabsorbtion?
In the proximal convoluted tubule
Why proximal convoluted tubule is twisted?
to increase the surface area for reabsorbtion
Why is the proximal convoluted tubule twisted?
to increase the surface area for reabsorbtion
What is two hormones that enhance sodium reabsorbtion in the kidney?
cortisol and aldosterone
What organ systems are involved in the creation and ecretion of urine?
creation-liver, excess ammino acids turn to urea. excetion- kidney, will be thrown out by the glumorulous at high presure and absorb important particles(excluding urea, uric acid and a % of others) via selective reabsorbtion. and wil be taken to the urinary bladder through the urerther and goes out as urine
What step in urine formation allows the blood to retain most body nutrients?
filtration, reabsorbtion, and secretion
What is the medical term meaning bilirubin in the urine?
The medical term for bilirubin in the urine is bilirubinuria.Actually bilirubin is usually produced by the liver as a result of deamination of amino acid in the liver which is sent to the kidney as nitrogenous waste through the blood in which selective reabsorbtion takes place and so bilirubin is removed through the urine. It's harmful when it builds up in the body.
What step involved in urine formation allows the blood to retain most body nutrients?
filtration, reabsorbtion, and secretion
What is the breeding of organisms that have a certain desire trait?
Selective breeding.
When the kidneys return salts and water to the blood it is called?
Reabsorption via a process called "secretion".
