What else can I help you with?
What would happen to total glomerular filtration and urine production in a human kidney if all the collecting ducts were blocked?
Total glomerular filtration would decrease due to the blockage of the collecting ducts, leading to reduced urine production. This blockage would prevent the reabsorption of water and solutes from the tubular fluid, resulting in a higher concentration of solutes in the urine that is formed.
What region of the kidney would you find renal corpuscles?
the renal corpuscles are located in kidney but to say precisely it is located in nephron(blood filtering component) hope that it helped ^^
Does dilation of the afferent arteriole decrease Glomular filtration rate?
No, dilation of the afferent arteriole typically increases glomerular filtration rate by allowing more blood flow into the glomerulus. Constriction of the afferent arteriole would decrease the glomerular filtration rate.
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 happens if The immediate result of a blockage to one ureter would be to?
If one ureter is blocked, the immediate result would be the accumulation of urine in the corresponding kidney, leading to a condition called hydronephrosis. This can cause increased pressure within the kidney, potentially resulting in pain, infection, or damage to the kidney tissue. If the blockage is not resolved, it may eventually impair kidney function or lead to kidney failure.
How many bowman's capsules are found in the entire kidney?
Each kidney contains approximately one million nephrons, and each nephron includes one Bowman's capsule. Therefore, there are roughly one million Bowman's capsules in a single kidney. Since humans typically have two kidneys, the total number of Bowman's capsules in both kidneys would be around two million.
What would be found in the glomerular filtrate if the glomerular membrane were damaged?
protein
Would kidney stone affect glomerular filtration rate?
Yes, kidney stones can affect glomerular filtration rate (GFR). When stones obstruct the urinary tract, they can lead to increased pressure within the kidney, potentially causing damage to the renal tissue and impairing its ability to filter blood effectively. This obstruction can result in decreased GFR, which may lead to kidney dysfunction if not resolved promptly. However, the impact on GFR can vary depending on the size and location of the stone, as well as the duration of the obstruction.
What would only be found in the glomerular filtrate if the glomerular membrane were damaged?
Protein
What would happen to total glomerular filtration and urine production in a human kidney if all the collecting ducts were blocked?
Total glomerular filtration would decrease due to the blockage of the collecting ducts, leading to reduced urine production. This blockage would prevent the reabsorption of water and solutes from the tubular fluid, resulting in a higher concentration of solutes in the urine that is formed.
What would cause a sharp tingle pain in the kidney region that increases when you sit or lay down?
Your kidney fell asleep
What will happen if capsules are taken incorrectly?
It would largely depend on what the contents of the capsules are.
How many capsules would you need to accumulate 1.05 kg of ingredient for a capsule contains 35 mg?
You would need 30000 capsules.
How many 660microgram capsules do you take to get 2 grams worth of medication?
Please reread the question that you are trying to answer one more time. I would assume that it was asking you to get 2 grains of medication, not grams. The answer then would be 182 capsules. If it was for grams, it would be 182,000 capsules.
Would red blood cells be present in the renal filtrate?
Not normally - red blood cells are quite large and should be above the glomerular filtration size threshold. Blood in the renal filtrate will by default result in blood in the urine due to an inability of the kidney to reabsorb it and this is pathlogic.
Which molecule would you expect to have the most difficulty crossing the glomerular filtration membrane?
albumin
Can a woman carry pregnancy to full term with one kidney?
Theoritically the answer is YES, sure a woman with one kidney not only can be pregnat, but capable of carrying the whole pregnancy and deliver a healthy child, BUT, the woman should be at check and control by Obstetrician and Gynaecologist and Nephrologist (specialist in kidney). Must check threshold after pregnancy, creatinine, urea, glomerular and tubular fuction, as well as heart function (incld. blood pressure)
