Excretory Products and their Elimination

Which of the following would help in prevention of diuresis?

1. Decrease in secretion of renin by JG cells
2. More water reabsorption due to undersecretion of ADH
3. Reabsorption of Na+ and water from renal tubules due to aldosterone
4. Atrial natriuretic factor causes vasoconstriction

Which of the following factors is responsible for the formation of concentrated urine?

1. Secretion of erythropoietin by Juxtaglomerular complex.
2. Hydrostatic pressure during glomerular filtration.
3. Low levels of antidiuretic hormone.

Which of the following statements is correct?

1. The descending limb of loop of Henle is impermeable to water
2. The ascending limb of loop of Henle is permeable to water.
3. The descending limb of loop of Henle is permeable to electrolytes.

In mammals, which blood vessel would normally carry largest amount of urea?

1. Hepatic Vein
2. Hepatic Portal Vein
3. Renal Vein

The part of nephron involved in active reabsorption of sodium is

1. distal convoluted tubule
2. proximal convoluted tubule
3. Bowman's capsule

Human urine is usually acidic because

1. potassium and sodium exchange generates acidity
2. hydrogen ions are actively secreted into the filtrate
3. the sodium transporter exchanges one hydrogen ion for each sodium ion, in peritubular capillaries.
4. excreted plasma proteins are acidic
