Question

Damage leading to a thickening of the proximal convoluted tubule epithelium could result in which of the following? A. A significant drop in blood volume resulting in a decrease in blood pressure B. Inability to hormonally regulate Na^+ reabsorption C. No glucose in the urine D. None of the above E. All of the above Which of the following might occur as a direct result if the basement membrane between the glomerular endothelial cells and Bowman's capsule was removed? A. Increase filtrate production B. Decrease amount of waste products filtered C. Abnormally high protein concentration in the urine D. B and C E. A and C Efferent arteriolar vasoconstriction causes the glomerular-capillary blood pressure to _____ leading to a(an) _____ in the net filtration pressure and a resultant _____ in the glomerular filtration rate. A. Increase: increase: increase B. Decrease: decrease: decrease C. Increase: decrease: decrease D. Decrease: increase: increase

Explanation / Answer

Ans.19)- D

The distal parts can compansate to absorb the electrolytes. The final balancing of the Na+. The blood pressure is done by the renin angiotensin system via the juxtraglomular appratus, that means here is not get a decrease in blood volume and blood pressure.
