Which part of the nephron consists of a knot of capillaries?

If by knot you mean a complicated intertwining of capillaries surrounding the nephron, they are called the peritubular capillaries. They are largely responsible for the bodies ability to concentrate urine and maintain homeostasis.

Can reabsorbing of solutes influence the reabsorption of water from the tubule fluid?

Yes. The movement of solutes into peritubular capillaries decreases the solute concentration of the tubular fluid but increases the solute concentration in the peritubular capillaries. As a result, water moves by osmosis into peritubular capillaries.


What happens when blood flows past cells?

How do the capillaries adjust to changes in temperature?

Capillaries adjust to changes in temperature primarily through the process of vasodilation and vasoconstriction. In response to increased temperatures, capillaries dilate, allowing more blood to flow to the surface of the skin, facilitating heat loss through radiation and convection. Conversely, in colder temperatures, capillaries constrict to reduce blood flow to the skin, helping to conserve body heat. This dynamic adjustment helps maintain overall body temperature homeostasis.


Why capillary influence the percent of water in the body?

Capillaries do not influence the percent of body fluid. The fluid leaving the circulation through proximal end comes back through distal end.
