- Explain the role of ADH, Renin, Aldosterone, Angiotensin I, II
in water and sodium reabsorption and how this is regulated. Also
include how this impacts blood volume, blood pressure, and cardiac
output. Make sure to include the importance of the lungs and liver
in this process as well. Feel free to create a diagram as your
explanation.
- Diagram a Renal Corpuscle with a Nephron Loop including all of
the following items and the role they play in the process of
nutrient reabsorption or where they are located in this process.
- Aldosterone
- ADH
- Potassium
- Chloride ions
- Glomerular Filtration Rate (rate at which filtrate is moving
from the arterioles to the renal tubules)
- Hydrostatic pressure (Blood and Capsular) (The forces pushing
against and with the movement of the filtrate, help determine the
amount of filtrate sent into the kidneys)
- Colloid Osmotic Pressure (protein in the blood plasma that
dictates osmosis)
- Net Filtration Pressure (Net filtrate pressure that dictates
the GFR)
- Glucose
- Amino Acids
- Protein
- Hydrogen Ions [H+]
- Urea
- NH4+
- NH3
- Bicarbonate
- Water
