What else can I help you with?
What Cells make up the convoluted tubules?
All biological tubules [internal linings - convoluted or straight] are made from the same Epithelial Cells that also comprise Our Integument - or Skin.
What regulates water reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules?
The hormone aldosterone regulates water reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules. It works by increasing the reabsorption of sodium ions, which in turn triggers the reabsorption of water from the tubules back into the bloodstream.
Where are all the proximal and distal convoluted tubules of the kidney located?
If you are talking about the proximal/distal convoluted tubules. Then you are talking about a kidney, and in between them is the nephron loop or the Loop of Henle
What is the controluted tubules?
It seems like there might be a typo in your question. Did you mean "convoluted tubules"? If so, convoluted tubules are found in the nephrons of the kidney and are responsible for reabsorbing water, ions, and other substances from the filtrate back into the bloodstream. They help in maintaining the body's water and electrolyte balance.
What part of the male reproductive system has long narrow highly coiled convoluted tubules leading to long highly convoluted tube?
Each testis is made up of abut 700 to 900 highly convoluted seminiferous tubules which leads to single highly convoluted Epididymis. Both of them are about 6 meters long, leading to Vas Differ-ens.
What histological feature distinguishes proximal convoluted tubule from a distal convoluted tubule?
Proximal convoluted tubules have brush borders or microvilli on the inner edge of the tubule. Distal convoluted tubules do not have this structure.

What regulates water reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules?
The hormone aldosterone regulates water reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules. It works by increasing the reabsorption of sodium ions, which in turn triggers the reabsorption of water from the tubules back into the bloodstream.
What is the medical term meaning portion of a nephron that is active in filtering urine?
The Proximal convoluted tubules, descending loop , ascending loop of henle and the distal convoluted tubules. Though the collecting ducts determine the final concentration of urine, an author states that it's not a part of the nephron.

What type of cells form the proximal convoluted tubules?
Simple Cuboidal with Microvilli

Each testis is made up of abut 700 to 900 highly convoluted seminiferous tubules which leads to single highly convoluted Epididymis. Both of them are about 6 meters long, leading to Vas Differ-ens.
Distal convoluted tubules flow directly into what structures?
The structures that distal tubes flow into are the collecting ducts of the kidneys. The collecting ducts are small tubes through which urine flows into the renal pelvis.
Do casts come from the tubules the calyces or the ureters?
Casts are formed in the distal convoluted tubules and collecting ducts of the nephron in the kidney. They are made up of protein or cellular material that becomes trapped in the renal tubules and is then washed out into the urine, where they can be detected.
What is the main function of the proximal convoluted tubules in urine formation?
reabsorption of most of the required substances from the filtrate
