What Cells make up the convoluted tubules?
All biological tubules [internal linings - convoluted or straight] are made from the same Epithelial Cells that also comprise Our Integument - or Skin.
Where are all the proximal and distal convoluted tubules of the kidney located?
If you are talking about the proximal/distal convoluted tubules. Then you are talking about a kidney, and in between them is the nephron loop or the Loop of Henle
The portion of the nephron that is between the proximal and distal convoluted tubules is the?
Loop of Henle
What part of the male reproductive system has long narrow highly coiled convoluted tubules leading to long highly convoluted tube?
Each testis is made up of abut 700 to 900 highly convoluted seminiferous tubules which leads to single highly convoluted Epididymis. Both of them are about 6 meters long, leading to Vas Differ-ens.
Distal convoluted tubules flow directly into what structures?
The structures that distal tubes flow into are the collecting ducts of the kidneys. The collecting ducts are small tubes through which urine flows into the renal pelvis.
What histological feature distinguishes proximal convoluted tubule from a distal convoluted tubule?
Proximal convoluted tubules have brush borders or microvilli on the inner edge of the tubule. Distal convoluted tubules do not have this structure.
What Cells make up the convoluted tubules?
All biological tubules [internal linings - convoluted or straight] are made from the same Epithelial Cells that also comprise Our Integument - or Skin.
What is the medical term meaning portion of a nephron that is active in filtering urine?
The Proximal convoluted tubules, descending loop , ascending loop of henle and the distal convoluted tubules. Though the collecting ducts determine the final concentration of urine, an author states that it's not a part of the nephron.
What is removed at the proximal convoluted tubule?
About 90 % of the fitered sodium chlorid in glomerulus is reabsorbed in proximal convoluted tubules.
Where are all the proximal and distal convoluted tubules of the kidney located?
If you are talking about the proximal/distal convoluted tubules. Then you are talking about a kidney, and in between them is the nephron loop or the Loop of Henle
In which region of the nephron does secretion occur?
The distal tubule
The portion of the nephron that is between the proximal and distal convoluted tubules is the?
Loop of Henle
What type of cells form the proximal convoluted tubules?
Simple Cuboidal with Microvilli
What part of the male reproductive system has long narrow highly coiled convoluted tubules leading to long highly convoluted tube?
Each testis is made up of abut 700 to 900 highly convoluted seminiferous tubules which leads to single highly convoluted Epididymis. Both of them are about 6 meters long, leading to Vas Differ-ens.
What hormone from the adrenal cortex will cause the distal convoluted tubules to reabsorb more sodium ions?
adh
What is the main function of the proximal convoluted tubules in urine formation?
reabsorption of most of the required substances from the filtrate
