Textbook Question
Chapter 25, Problem 25TYK
Scientists have found that the quantity of aquaporin molecules inserted in the membranes of collecting duct cells changes in response to ADH levels. Draw a line graph proposing a relationship between ADH levels and its effect on the quantity of - aquaporins. Additionally, explain how the relationship between ADH and aquaporins corresponds to situations of dehydration and hydration.

Based on the graph on the right,which describes the clearance rate through the basement membrane of the glomerulus, which protein would generate the most oncotic pressure at equivalentconcentration?(a) albumin (66 kDa, 3.5 nmradius)(b) myoglobin (17 kDa, 2.23 nm radius)(c)Îł-globulin (150 kDa, 4.54 nm radius)
(b)Justify your answer.
Explain the mechanism how furosemide affects kidney tubules. How does this affect K+ balance? How different is the mechanism of thiazide affect urine production? Describe the process of acid-base regulation in human body.
The mammalian kidney contains an immense network of nephrons that functions to conserve water by producing urine that is hyperosmotic compared to other body fluids.
Explain how the transport epithelia of the nephron and collecting duct are able to use transport mechanisms to process the filtrate as it moves through the vessels and produce a hyperosmotic filtrate.

This is often accomplished by infusing isotonic NaCl solution into the blood.

- Two solutions are separated by a semipermeable membrane that is permeable only to water. The two solutions are: Solution A = 150 mM KCl Solution B = 150 mM Angiotensin (a 7 amino acid polypeptide) Which of the following would best explain the net movement in this situation? - water will move from the KCl side to Angiotensin side - water will move from Angiotensin side to KCl side - The Cl- ion will move to the angiotensin side until there is 75 mM Cl- on each side - Since Angiotensin is not an ion, it can move through the membrane - There is no net water movement as the concentrations are the same on both sidesarrow_forwardDescribe the process of how the bicarbonate ion is is reabsorbed in the nephron tublule, if the Na/K pump failed to work, how would this affect the PH of the blood?arrow_forwardThe principle of dialysis is employed in artificial kidneys.
