An example of a countercurrent is what?
In the human body, the countercurrent exchange system in the nephrons of the kidney allows for efficient reabsorption of water and ions. Blood flow and filtrate flow travel in opposite directions, enhancing the exchange of solutes between the blood and the filtrate for optimal water conservation.
What happens with an increase in the solute concentration of the filtrate in the lumen of the nephron tubules?
An increase in the solute concentration of the filtrate leads to an increase in osmotic pressure in the nephron tubules. This triggers more water reabsorption from the filtrate, reducing urine volume and maintaining overall body fluid balance.
Is salt solution a filtrate?
No, a salt solution is not a filtrate. Filtrate refers to the liquid that has passed through a filter, while a salt solution is a homogeneous mixture of water and dissolved salt.
What is the liquid that run through filter paper called?
The filtrate.
Why do you add detergent to filtrate?
Detergent is added to the filtrate to break down and solubilize any remaining substances that may be present, allowing them to pass through the filter. This helps ensure that the filtrate is clear and free of any residual impurities before further analysis or processing.
Why you cannot filtrate a solution?
A filtrate is already in solution.
Site of filtrate formation?
site filtrate formation
What is a filtrate in filtration?
A filtrate is the liquid that has passed through a filter.
What is the liquid that pass through the filtering funnel?
Filtrate. the ones trapped by the filter paper is called the residue
What happens to the filtrate concentration of water as it descends the tubules?
As the filtrate goes down the hypertonic interstitum of the renal medulla, water leaves the filtrate into the interstitum. As such, the water concentration in the filtrate decreases.
Where is the site of the filtrate formation?
Glomerulus is the filter that makes the filtrate.
How Collect the filtrate?
Filtrate is collected in a recipient placed under the funnel or filtration apparatus.
Is a filtrate pure?
A filtrate doesn't contain insoluble substances but can contain soluble substances.
What is the name for the liquid that goes through a piece of filter paper?
filtrate sand is a filtrate it stays behind
What is the filtrate in sulfur and potassium chloride mixture?
The word "filtrate' is not adequate for a mixture of S and KCl as solids.
An example of a countercurrent is what?
In the human body, the countercurrent exchange system in the nephrons of the kidney allows for efficient reabsorption of water and ions. Blood flow and filtrate flow travel in opposite directions, enhancing the exchange of solutes between the blood and the filtrate for optimal water conservation.
Where is the glomerulus filtrate?
The glomerulus filtrate is located within the Bowman's capsule, which is the initial part of the kidney tubule where the glomerular filtrate is collected before being processed further in the renal tubules.
