Explain the two mechanisms by which glomerular filtration rate
is regulated? (please be brief in explaining! I am trying to
understand this with limited time!)
Describe how glomerular filtration rate is regulated. Be sure to
include both intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms, and explain how
and when they operate.
Describe the mechanism for reabsorption of water, glucose and
Na+ in the PCT.
Which of the following usually decreases glomerular filtration
rate? Choose all that are correct
A. a decrease in arterial pressure
B. a decrease in plasma protein level
C. a decrease in sympathetic nervous system output
D. a decrease in atrial natriuretic hormone
1a, Which of the following statements about the glomerular
filtration rate (GFR) is false?
Select one:
a. A blockage in the urine flow in the renal pelvis increases the
GFR.
b. Increases renal plasma flow increases the GFR.
c. Inulin is filtered but not reabsorbed and not secreted. Its
clearance rate can indicate the GFR.
d. Creatinine clearance rate (CCr) is a useful measure for
approximating the GFR.
e. The GFR is a healthy person is around 125 mL/min
1b,...
Which of the following options will increase the glomerular
filtration rate? NOTE: SELECT ALL CORRECT ANSWERS
a) reducing the concentration of actively osmotic material
within blood.
b) decreasing cardiac output.
c) decrease capillary permeability.
d) increasing mean arterial pressure.
