Is the distal tubule and collecting ducts relatively impermeable due to water in the absence of hormones?
In the absence of hormones, the distal tubule and collecting ducts are relatively impermeable to water. True
Is the stomach distal to the heart?
The heart is SUPERIOR to the stomach...ABOVE... Distal usually only applies to the appendages, or limbs. The hand is distal to the elbow. The foot is distal to the ankle. Distal might give you partial credit for some answers but when you are dealing with the torso you will want to use SUPERIOR or INFERIOR.
Function of distal tubule?
The distal tubule reabsorbs ions into the tubular fluid. The distal tubule plays a huge role in the balance of acid in the urinary tract.
The hormone ADH functions to promote water re-abdsorption through the wall of what in the kidney?
distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct.The distal convoluted tubule
Premeability to water is regulated by ADH in this structure?
The principal cells in the distal convoluted tubule.
What would an EMT use a distal pulse for?
To check for blood flow distal from an injury.

In which region of the nephron does secretion occur?
The distal tubule
Is the knee distal or proximal from the ankle?
It is never looked at this way. We always use the point of attachment of the limb as the starting point. The ankle is distal from the knee. No one would use it any other way.
Is the heart distal to the rib cage?
The heart is SUPERIOR to the stomach...ABOVE... Distal usually only applies to the appendages, or limbs. The hand is distal to the elbow. The foot is distal to the ankle. Distal might give you partial credit for some answers but when you are dealing with the torso you will want to use SUPERIOR or INFERIOR.

Is the ankle proximal or distal to the hip?
Distal
Is the foot distal or proximal to the heart?
Distal
What is the opposite of distal?
Proximal is the opposite of distal.
