Renal Flashcards
Parts of nephron
Glomerulus Bowmans capsule proximal convoluted tubule’s distal convoluted tubule macula densa loop of Henley connecting tubule cortical collecting tubule medullary collecting tubule collecting duct
Loop of Henley consists of
Thick ascending limb
thin ascending limb
descending limb
Percentage of cortical nephron
85%
Filtration of proteins free plasma from glomerulus into Bowmans capsule is called
Glomerular filtration
What percent of plasma is filtered by glomerular filtration
20%
Volume of filtrate formed by all the nephrons in both the kidneys in one minute is called
Glomerular filtration rate
Rate of glomerular filtration
125 ML per minute or 180 L per day
Hormones which help in vasoconstriction
 Angiotensin two antidiuretic hormone I’m not adrenaline
Hormones which increases our BF and GFT
Prostaglandin bradykinin
Macular Denza actor sense for ________ present in the human of DCT
Sodium
Autoregulation of GFR is also known
Tubulo glomerular feedback
Urine volume per day
1-1.5 L
Tubular load is also known as
Filtered load
What is tubular load
Quantity of any substance filtered per minute
Excretion rate
You are a concentration of the substance * urine flow rate
= Ux * V
