excretion

        Help!  

Question
Answer
excretion is the removal of _____ produced by the body   metabolic waste  
🗑
______ of amino acids in the liver forms urea   deamination  
🗑
annelids excrete minerals and urea using   nephridia  
🗑
arthrodods excrete nitrogenous waste as _______   uric acid  
🗑
________ arterioles enters the glomerulus   afferent  
🗑
________ arteiole drains the glomerulus   efferent  
🗑
Filtration occurs in _____   glomerulus  
🗑
why is the afferent larger than efferent   -blood pa is much higher and drive filtration  
🗑
_____ secretes angiotensinogen whch is acted upon by renin secreted by _______   liver; kidney  
🗑
Angiotensin_____ afferent and efferent arterioles. stimulates ____ and water __________ by prox tubule   constricts; Nacl; reabsorption  
🗑
tubular secretion   renal tubule extracts chemicals from blood to tubular fluid  
🗑
tubular reabsorption   substances from filtrate reabsorbed into blood primarily occurs in the Prox tubule  
🗑
tubular reabsorption is passive or active process?   active process  
🗑
wats the function of the nephron loop   form a salinity gradient that causes the collecting duct to conserve water  
🗑
significance of thick segment of ascending loop   reabsorb 25% Na + impermeable to water  
🗑
fluid entering the distal convoluted tubule is   highly diluted  
🗑
how does DCT regulate the tubular fluid concentration   the effects of hormones, like aldosterone, ANP  
🗑
"salt retaining hormone"   aldosterone  
🗑
role of aldosterone   causes the ascending loop to reabsorb Na and Cl when blood pa is low  
🗑
role of ANP   in response to high blood pressure, inhibits NaCl reabsorption by collecting duct  
🗑
role of ADH   in response to low blood pressure, makes Collecting duct more permeable to water  
🗑
parathyroid hormone   in response to low blood calcium,so increase phosphate exct=retion and increase Ca reabsorption  
🗑
____ release angiotensinogen; _____ release renin; ________ secretes Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) to convert angiotensin 1 to ________   liver, kidney; lungs; angiotensin II  
🗑
Angiotensin II causes kidney to secrete ____ ; blood vessels to ___ that in turn _____   aldosterone; constrict; increase blood Pa  
🗑
2/3 of water is reabsorbed by   PCT  
🗑
water is absorbed by pct via _____ with the aid of _______   osmosis; aquaporin  
🗑
tubular secretion compensates for____   waste removal during pct reabsorption  
🗑
________ directly causes stimulation of aldosterone release   low Na or high K in blood  
🗑
_______ indirectly induce aldosterone release   low blood Pa  
🗑
aldosterone affects the ______ and causes _______   thick ascending loop; Na reabsorption and K secretion; decreased urine vol.  
🗑
_____ stimulates PTH release   low blood calcium  
🗑
PTH acts on ______ TO INCREASE phosphate excretion   prox tubule  
🗑
PTH acts on ______ and ____ to increase Ca reabsorption which ends up   DCT and thick ascending loop; increasing blood calcium levels  
🗑
how des ADH affect the KIdneys   increases the amt of aquaporins in the collecting duct and tubules  
🗑
