Q

Glomerular filtration

A

First step on urine formation
A physical proces

Water and solutes filter out of blood into Norman’s capsule
Through glomerular capsular membrane

Q

Fluid filters out of glomeruli
Into bowmans capsules due to of a pressure gradient from hydrostatic pressure inside glomeruli ( which is really high due to afferent artery is larger than efferent artery)
More volume gets in then out in time unit
Opposing the plasma tic oncotic pressure and capsular hydrostatic pressure in the filtrate

Q

Total blood volume filtration.

A

Every 45 mins

Q

Transport maximum for glucose

19
Q

Protein absorption

20
Q

Sodium drags

A

Chloride and carbonic acid
Depending on pH

And osmotic water to proximal tubules

21
Q

Proximal tubule reabsorption.

A
Sodium 
Glucose 
Potassium
Amino acid
Carbonic acid
Phosphate 
Water (no ADH) 
Urea 

75-80% of water and sodium reabsorbed

22
Q

Proximal tubules secretion

A

Hydrogen ion

Foreign substances

23
Q

loop of henle

A

conc of urine (countercurrent of mechanism)
descending loop - water reabsorption and sodium diffuse in
ascending loop- sodium reabsorbed -active transport , water stays in

hypotonic
hypertonic
isotonic

24
distal tubules
reabsorption sodium h2o (ADH required) HCO3 secretion of k urea h+ NH3+ drug isotonic or hypotonic
25
connecting duct
reabsorption of h2o ADH required ``` reabsorption or secretion of sodium potassium hydrogen ammonia ``` final concentration=tonicty
26
reabsorption of sodium and water in distal and collecting tubules are regulated by hormones and body needs
no hormones = no reabsorption
27
ADH
high h2o reabsorption at distal and collecting duct
28
aldosterone
high sodium reabsorption at distal and cortical collecting duct
29
Filtration
Across filtration membrane into the lumen of bowmans capsule to form filtrate
30
Reabsorption
Solute are reabsorbed are absorbed across the wall of the nephron by active transport and. Cotransport Water - nephron osmosis
31
Secretion
Wall of the nephron into the filtrate
32
3 filtration pressure
Glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure 55mmhg Blood colloid osmotic pressure 30mmhg Capsular hydrostatic pressure 15
33
Secretion
Further secretion Occurs at peri tubular capillary And tubular cells - distal tubules Example potassium hydrogen creatinine ammonia and drugs
34
During bypass hemodilution
Oncotic pressure decreased filtrate increase | Increase urine output
35
Concentration dilution of urine
Mechanism works to control total body water and ions Water increase dilution Responsible juxtamedullary nephron - loop of henle extends to medulla
36
Countercurrent multiplication
Osmolarity of lumen and tissues surrounding the loop increases toward the papilla Collecting ducts are permeable to water under certain circumstances
37
Vasa recta
For water and blood relationship Play role in formation of concentrated urine If urine needs to be concentrated Water will decrease blood become hyperosmolar
38
Sensor controller
In hypothalamus and posterior pituitary gland
39
Hypothalamus
``` Monitors blood osmolarity If up water is down Blood shrinks Posterior pituitary gland releases adh increase water reabsorbed Turns on countercurrent ```
40
Urea
Help in the osmolarity of interstitial tissue near papilla Blood flow to both kidneys is 21% of co 1200 ml/min
41
Acid -base balance | First defense
Buffer system which do not eliminate or add proton - homeostasis
42
Acid base balance | Second defense
By lungs Increase or decreased by co2 elimination Carbonic and bicarbonate buffer system
43
Acid base balance | Third defense
Kidneys | Correct problem by excreting acidic or basic urine
44
Alkalosis
``` Highly basic Decrease reabsorption hco3- in kidneys Decrease hydrogen buffer Increase hco3- excretion Increas h+ decrease pH ```
45
Acidosis
Increased hydrogen conc in ECF Kidneys reabsorbed hco3 Opposite alkalosis
46
Kidneys control ph by
Secretion of h+ Reabsorption of hco3 And production of hco3
