Chapter 25, Problem 9TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Kidneys are the organs of the urinary system that play a major role in elimination of the
Blood’s hydrostatic pressure of the drives the process of filtration. This process is least selective as the blood pressure forces most of the substances such as water, glucose, amino acids, vitamins, urea and other substances in the glomerular space.

(this is not the same question as '48') 49. A. Large molecules like Glucose are not filtered into the renal tubules because Glucose is too big. B. Glucose molecules are ultimately secreted into the renal tubules; thát is why Glucose is found in the urine of a normal healthy person. C. Glucose molecules are filtered into the renal tubules but are rapidly reabsorbed; that is why very little glucose is found in the urine of a healthy person. D. Plasma Electrolytes are simply too big to be filtered into the renal tubules; that is why only a small concentration of extracellular electrolytes are is found in the urine of a healthy person.arrow_forwardIn patients with diabetes mellitus, not enough insulin is produced; as a consequence, blood glucose levels increase. If blood glucose levels rise high enough, the kidneys are unable to absorb the glucose from the glomerular filtrate, and glucose "spills over" into the urine.
