Question
Chapter 26, Problem 12CP
Summary Introduction
To review:
The other source, through which the urine gets the drug penicillin if the rate, at which penicillin excreted in urine, is more than it is filtered through the glomerulus.
Introduction:
A mixture of solutes and fluid that get drained into calyces and renal pelvis is the urine, which is excreted from the body. The rate, at which the urine is filtered through glomerular filtration, is equal to the rate of urinary excretion.

If the urinary excretion rate of a drug such as penicillin is greater than the rate at which it is filtered at the glomerulus, how else is it getting into the urine?
For each of the following urinalysis results, indicate whether you should be concerned or not and why: (a) dark yellow urine that is turbid; (b) ammonia- like odor of the urine; (c) presence of excessive albumin; (d) presence of epi- thelial cell casts; (e) pH of 5.5; (f) hematuria.
The lumen of the ureter is continuous with a space inside the kidney. This space has branching extensions. What are the names of this space and its extensions?

- For each of the following urinalysis results, indicate whether you should be concerned or not and why: (a) dark yellow urine that is turbid; (b) ammonia-like odor of the urine; (c) presence of excessivealbumin; (d) presence of epithelial cell casts; (e) pH of 5.5; (f) hematuria.arrow_forwardWhy do urinary casts typically form in the distal convoluted tubule and collecting ducts of nephrons in the kidneys?arrow_forwardThe presence of either protein or glucose in a urinalysis is abnormal, but these two molecules end up in the urine for different reasons. For each of these molecules, briefly describe where in the urine production process (i.e., glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption or tubular secretion) the problem occurs, and why it might happen.arrow_forward
- Pressure in the renal artery is 100 mm Hg and the pressure in the renal vein is 50 mm Hg.

- Why is creatinine clearance a good estimate of glomerular filtration rate?arrow_forwardRenal clearance is the 1) Amount of creatinine in urine 2) Urine concentration of a substance divided by the urine volume per unit of time 3) Volume of plasma from which a substance is removed per unit of time 4) Volume of urine produced per dayarrow_forwardWhy is this statement false? Without the renal medullar osmotic gradient, you would not be able to raise the concentration of urine above 1200 mOsmarrow_forward
