Question
Chapter 44, Problem 2TYU
Summary Introduction
Introduction: The elimination of nitrogenous waste products occurs through a number of key steps such as filtration, reabsorption, secretion and excretion. Some of these processes are highly selective while others are less selective.

Which process in the nephron is least selective? (A) filtration (B) reabsorption (C) active transport (D) secretion
The part of the nephron whose epithelial cells contain the longest microvilli and the most mitochondria is the (a) glomerular capsule (podocytes), (b) proximal tubule, (c) thin segment, (d) distal tubule.
Sketch a nephron, including Bowman’s capsule, the proximal convoluted tubules, the descending and ascending loop of Henle, the distal convoluted tubules, and the collecting ducts……then….
………Indicate where in the nephron the following diuretics and antidiuretics act:
1) osmotic diuretic (mannitol), 2) loop diuretics (furosemide or Lasix), 3) thiazide diuretics (hydrochlorothiazide), 4) potassium-sparing diuretics, 5) ADH, 6) Aldosterone
