Chapter 19, Problem 24RQ

Graphing question: You are given a chemical Z and told to determine how it is handled by the kidneys of a mouse. After a series of experiments, you determine that (a) Z is freely filtered; (b) Z is not reabsorbed; (c) Z is actively secreted; and (d) the renal threshold for Z secretion is a plasma concentration of 80 mg/mL plasma, and the transport maximum is 40 mg/min. The mouse GFR is 1 mL/min. On a graph similar to the one in question 22, show how filtration, secretion, and excretion are related. One axis will be plasma concentration of Z (mg/mL) with a range of 0–140, and the other axis will show rates of kidney processes (mg/min) with a range of 0–140.

Students have asked these similar questions
when we collect fish or mussels we record a variety of biological information, including but not limited their sex, length, weight or a scale or finray or other tissue sample. Why do we do this, and what information are we hoping to obtain from these measurements and taking these samples?
Draw a rough sketch of the control and experimental data using a normal dose/response curve plot: i.e. % of total bound ligand vs. concentration. Indicate Kd and Bmax on this sketch. You don’t need to use exact numbers, but the relative proportions should be close
Name something that could be happening to glutamate transporters that could have this effect on glutamate transport (i.e. the difference in glutamate transporters between control and experimental conditions). (Bonus: if you can also guess what the experimental condition is).
