Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Aldosterone affects sodium balance by impacting sodium reabsorption in the distal nephron. If MAP and/or GFR falls, how will this system function? Increased levels of aldosterone add epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs) to the luminal membrane of the collecting duct. Increased levels of aldosterone remove epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs) from the luminal membrane of the collecting duct. Decreased levels of aldosterone allow increased expression of epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs) in the collecting duct. O Decreased levels of aldosterone decrease expression of epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs) in the collecting duct.
Which row below indicates a MISMATCH between the processes and the functions of the kidney? Row Process Function excretion of metabolic wastes rids the body of urea and uric acid maintaining the water-salt balance helps regulate blood volume maintaining the acid-base balance rids the body of nitrogenous wastes regulating salt balance in the blood reabsorption of various ions including Na+
