What is the effect of constricted arterioles in the glomerular filtration rate?
Constricted arterioles in the glomerulus can lead to a decrease in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by reducing the amount of blood flow entering the glomerulus. This can result in decreased filtration of waste and reduced urine production.
What are three types of blood vessels found in cats?
The three types of blood vessels are the same in both cats and humans: veins, arteries and capillaries.
How the fluted filter paper increased the rate of filtration?
Rate of filtration can be increased by using fluted filter paper.rate of filtration is related to surface area of the filter medium.In case of fluted filter paper surface area is increased ,as by folding the paper in such a way,the larger area of filter paper can be confined in the same funnel.so rate of filtration increases.
What happens if the diameter of the efferent arteriole is constricted?
When the afferent arteriole is constricted it causes blood to be unable to flow into the glomerulus, overall decreasing hydrostatic pressure and causing the bowman's capsule to decrease filtration.
What is Starling's Law of the capillaries?
The hypothesis that fluid filtration through capillary membranes is dependent on the balance between the pressure the blood places on the membranes and the osmotic pressure of the membranes. The law relating to the passage of fluid out of a capillary depending on the hydrostatic and osmotic pressures of the blood and the same pressures of tissue fluid, the net effect of the opposing pressures determining the direction and rate of flow.
Are capillaries and veins the same?
nope :)
What are the two different types of interest rates?
A fixed rate has the same rate of interest the entire life of the loan. A fluctuating rate varies with the prime interest rate.
Capillaries form the connection between the arteries and veins?
Capillaries connect the smallest branches of arteries and veins The walls of capillaries are just one cell thick. Capillaries therefore allow the exchange of molecules between the blood and the body's cells - molecules can diffuse across their walls. This exchange of molecules is not possible across the walls of other types of blood vessel.
What types of rates does Jacksonville Mortgage Refinancing offer?
The types of mortgage loans offered by Jacksonville Mortgage Rates are: Fixed Rate Mortgage, where the interest rate remains the same for the life of the loan, and Adjustable Rate Mortgage in which the interest rate is tied to stock market activity.
Is the artery the same size as your vein?
Arteries and veins can be different sizes, because large arteries branch into smaller arteries, which branch into capillaries. These capillaries branch into small veins, which branch into large veins. So yes, they can be (and usually are) the same size if (I am surmising this) they are the same distance from the capillaries.
Is the glomerular filtration rate the same when the efferent arteriole is constricted and dilated?
OLD, INCORRECT ANSWER: Changes in the diameter of the efferent arteriole will either increase (dilation) or decrease (constriction) the blood flow to the glomeruli. An increased flow means a more blood getting filtered over time. NEW, CORRECT ANSWER The 'efferent' arteriole leaves the renal corpuscle. It is easy to remember which direction efferent and afferent things are going by thinking e=exit and a=arrive. If you constrict the efferent arteriole, you actually inhibit blood from leaving the glomerulus, thus increasing the outward hydrostatic pressure pushing fluid into Bowman's capsule and increasing filtration. If you dilate the efferent arteriole, then you reduce pressure in the glomerular capillaries and reduce filtration.
Does rainwater absorb at the same rate in different types of soil?
Different plants have different nutrients , so no
