Describe the mechanisms by which, Na+, K+, and Ca2+ are regulated in the extracellular fluid
Describe the concentration differences for Na+ and K+that exist across the plasma membrane.
When the kidneys filter plasma, the filtered glucose is reabsorbed from the renal tubules and is not passed in the urine. However, glucose can appear in the urine when the blood sugar is exceptionally high.
Given that glucose is reabsorbed by carrier-mediated transport, what functional aspect of carrier-mediated transport does the appearance of glucose in urine demonstrate? Explain.
