(All concentrations in mg/100ml) * in healthy kidney,
1a. Draw a simplified cartoon a nephron including structures at top of each column and any other structures you wish – be sure to label the structures! (you can skip the renal vein!).
1b Now look at how concentration of urea and protein change in various locations of the kidney – for each of these locations you need to contrast the concentrations and explain (hint: think about using the terms filtration/filtrate, reabsorption, and secretion…) what is happening to cause the changes you see in the table.
a. Compare and contrast urea/protein in the efferent arteriole:
b. Compare and contrast urea/protein in the capsule
c. Compare and contrast urea/protein in the collecting duct
d. Compare and contrast urea/protein in the renal vein
1c Concentration of amino acids and glucose in the renal vein is lower than in the incoming blood (for example in the afferent arteriole) – what is happening to these molecules in the kidney that is decreasing their concentration? (hint: notice they are not found in the urine!)
