(a)
To explain: What happens to the blood concentration of plasma proteins in an individual with renal disease that results in damage to the filtration membrane.
Concept introduction: Each nutrient has specific transport proteins in the proximal convoluted tubule where it gets reabsorbed completely. These substances are nutrients (glucose, amino acids, and lactate) and small amount of filtered proteins.
(b)
To explain: What happens to the blood concentration of plasma proteins in an individual with renal disease that results in a decreased filtration at the filtration membrane.
Concept introduction: Each nutrient has specific transport proteins in the proximal convoluted tubule where it gets reabsorbed completely. These substances are nutrients (glucose, amino acids, and lactate) and small amount of filtered proteins.
