What else can I help you with?
What is the process that actively moves substances from the blood into the nephron?
in the ascending limb of the loop of Henle
The process by which the renal tubule actively moves substances from the blood into the nephron to be excreted?
Tubular secretion
What moves fluid and chemicals into the nephron?
Filtration at the glomerulus moves fluid and small molecules into the nephron. Subsequently, reabsorption and secretion processes move specific chemicals in and out of the nephron to regulate their concentrations in the body.
What happend in the kidney as the liquid passes though the nephron?
As blood passes into and through the glomerulus, due to the high blood pressure coming into the kidney, water and other solutes, eg: urea, glucose, sodium, potassium and other electrolytes, are forced by pressure thru a membrane and into the nephron. Red Blood cells are too big to pass through this, and remain in the blood vessels, if you do have blood in your urine it can be a indicator of a problem in the kidney. This fluid then moves through the nephrons, the proximal convoluting tubule, the loop of Henle, the distal convoluting tubule and into the collecting duct. On the way, through passive and active osmosis, water, electrolytes are removed from the filtrate and back into the body, until the filtrate is the concentrated formula which then flows out the kidney to the bladder.
What system moves the blood to the lungs?
The circulatory system moves blood to the lungs. This part of the system is called the pulmonary circulation.
What is the muscular pump that moves blood thought a series of tubes called blood vessels?
your heart.
What is the name of the vessel the moves blood away from the heart called?
artery
Where is the body's blood filter?
The kidney filters out salts and dissolved materials, the liver removes dissolved organics and metabolizes them. Both of these operations could be described as filtering. The pump that moves the blood to these filters is the heart.
What is the glomerus and in which tissue of the kidney is this part of the nephron located?
The glomerus a capillary tuft which receives its blood supply from an afferent arteriole of the renal circulation. Its blood pressure provides the power to force fluids and solutes to be filtered out of the blood into the space made by the Bowman's capsule. The remaining unfiltered blood passes into the narrower efferent arteriole. It then moves into the vasa recta, the collecting capillaries intertwined with the convoluted tubules through the interstitial space where the reabsorbed substances also enter. It then joins with the efferent venules of the other nephrons into the renal vein before rejoining with the main bloodstream.
What is the vessel that moves blood away from the heart?
the vessel is called a artery
How blood moves?
when you cry it moves and the word is for moving blood called london society you think that it is country london but it is the best oxygen in life you live with this it is your life dont forget it remember it...
What is the tiny vessels where oxygen moves from the red blood cells into the body cells are called?
Capillaries
