Questions
1. Which of the following would be a similarity between the lymph node and kidney?
a. Both the kidney and lymph node filter fluid to remove waste or pathogens from the tissues.
b. Both the lymph node and kidney are composed of glandular epithelium.
c. All of these are similarities between the lymph node and kidney.
d. The fluid enters the kidney and lymph node at the cortex and exits the organ/node at the hilum.
2. The counter current multiplier occurs at the loop of Henle when sodium exits the descending limb of the loop of Henle, causing water to follow by exiting the ascending limb of the loop of Henle. Together this affects the concentration of urine.
True
False
3. Alex has hyponatremia.
A. What hormone would work to restore the electrolyte levels with his urinary system?
B. What part of the nephron would this hormone target?
C. Would the concentration of his urine be concentrated or dilute with this condition?
D. Would you predict his blood pressure would be high or low with this condition?
4. What structure is last in the flow of urine after it is made?
a. kidney
b. ureter
c. bladder
d. urethra
5. Damage to the renal medulla would interfere with the function of which part of the nephron?
a. distal convoluted tubule
b. collecting duct
c. proximal convoluted tubule
d. renal corpuscle
6. Susie has hypertension. What would you predict about her glomerular filtration rate (GFR)?
a. All of these are correct.
b. Glomerular hydrostatic pressure would be high causing more filtrate to form.
c. Afferent arterioles would vasodilate to increase the GFR and cause more filtrate to form.
d. Capsular hydrostatic pressure would be high causing more filtrate to form.
7. Put the blood vessels below in order from entering the kidney to the renal corpuscle.
