ACTIVITY 3 Renal Response to Altered Blood Pressure 1. List the several mechanisms you have explored that change the glomerular filtration rate. How does each mechanism specifically alter the glomerular filtration rate? compare 2. Describe and explain what happened to the glomerular capillary pressure and glomerular filtration rate when both arteriole radii changes well did the with your prediction? 3. How could you adjust the afferent or efferent radius to compensate for the effect of reduced blood pressure on the glomerular filtration rate? 4. Which arteriole radius adjustment was more effective at compensating for the effect of low blood pressure on the glomerular filtration rate? Explain why you think this difference occurs. 5. In the body, how does a nephron maintain a near-constant glomerular filtration rate despite a constantly fluctuating blood pressure?
