Why would the differential renal vein renin test show an increase in the blocked renal artery side secretion of renin, yet a drop in renin levels on the other (normal) side?
The presence of either protein or glucose in a urinalysis is abnormal but they 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. please help
In glomeruli, the efferent arteriole is usually smaller than the afferent? True False
Glomerular filtration can be increased by which of the following? A. Increasing blood flow via afferent arteriole B. Decreasing blood flow via afferent arteriole C. Decreasing arterial blood pressure D. Increasing blood flow via efferent arteriole The answer is (A) Increasing blood flow via afferent arteriole. Please explain why it is not the other options (B,C,D)
Pressure in the renal artery is 100 mm Hg and the pressure in the renal vein is 50 mm Hg. The resistance of the afferent arteriole equals 0.5 mm Hg•min/L and the resistance of the efferent arteriole equals 0.5 mm Hg•min/L. What is the pressure in the glomerulus?
Which of the following would reduce the glomerular filtration rate? Select one: a. Vasodilation of the afferent arteriole b. An increase in osmotic pressure in the Bowman capsule c. A drop in colloid osmotic pressure d. Vasoconstriction of the afferent arteriole e. Vasoconstriction of the efferent arteriole
