What is the covering membrane of the kidney?
Mucosa is a mucous membrane that lines the inside of the tract from mouth to anus. Depending upon the section of the digestive tract, it protects the GI tract wall, secretes substances, and absorbs the end products of digestion. It also surrounds the large and small intestines, and other vital organs in the human body
How are microvilli adapted?
Microvilli are small, finger-like projections found on the surface of cells in the small intestine, kidney, and other tissues. They increase the surface area of the cell membrane, allowing for more efficient absorption of nutrients and molecules. This adaptation helps in maximizing the rate of absorption of substances in the digestive tract and enhancing cellular function.
What is the name of excretes salt from its surface?
The process of excreting salt from the surface of the body is called salt excretion.
The primary filter to exclude proteins from the filtrate is the?
The primary filter to exclude proteins from the filtrate is the glomerular basement membrane in the kidney. This membrane selectively allows small solutes and water to pass through while preventing large proteins from being filtered out of the blood.
Are aquaporins in all parts of the body?
They are found on the surface of eukaryotic cells
'What is a smooth membrane tightly adherent to the kidney's surface called?
The smooth membrane tightly adherent to the kidney's surface is called the renal capsule. It is a fibrous covering that protects the kidney and helps maintain its shape and position within the body.
What smooth membrane tightly adherent to the kidney surface?
Renal Capsule.
Membrane around outer surface of kidney?
The renal capsule is an inner fibrous membrane that surrounds the kidney and prevents infections from entering the kidney.
The testes of a frog are attached by a membrane to what?
kidney
What is the fibrous membrane immediately surrounding the kindey?
The fibrous membrane immediately surrounding the kidney is called the renal capsule. It is a smooth, transparent sheath that helps to maintain the shape and protect the kidney.
What fits over the concave surface of each kidney?
The renal capsule, a fibrous covering, fits over the concave surface of each kidney.
What is the partially permeable membrane of kidney - the glomerulus or the Bowman's capsule?
bowman's capsule
What body surface are mammary glands found on?
kidney
How does the kidney achieve a large surface area?
The cells lining the proximal tubules of the nephrons have a highly folded cell membrane on the lumen side of the tubule made of microvilli. This is referred to as a brush border and is important in increasing the surface area for reabsorption of components of the filtrate as it passes down the nephron.

What does an abnormal kidney mean on a ultrasound?
It simply means the kidney surface or cortex appeared abnormal - you will need a kidney biopsy to see what this actually means.
What is the ball of specialized capillaries within a kidney nephron where renal filtration occurs?
a ball , tightly coiled capillaries within a kidney nephron where renal filtration occurs
