Chapter 24, Problem 1CAL
Use the following paragraph to answer questions 1–3.
Maria is 8 months pregnant. When she goes to her doctor for her checkup, the nurse takes her blood pressure. It is unusually high: 200/100 mm Hg. The nurse also collects a urine sample and detects elevated levels of protein in her urine.
1. What can account for the protein in her urine?
- a. Protein is a normal component of urine and is no cause for concern.
- b. Excessive amounts of plasma proteins are filtered at the renal corpuscle.
- c. Tubular cells produce additional protein in response to the elevated blood pressure.
- d. The tubular cells have exocytosed protein into the tubular fluid.
