(i). Reabsorption in this region in minimum.
(ii). This region plays a significant role in the maintenance of high osmalarity of interstitial fluid.
(iii). Its descending limb is permeable to water but almost impermeable to electrolytes.
(iv). Its ascending limb is impermeable to water but allows transport of electrolytes actively ro passively.

I. Reabsorption in this region is minimum. II. This region plays a significant role in the maintenance of high osmolarity of intestinal fluid III. Its descending limb is permeable to water but almost impermeable to electrolytes IV. Its ascending limb is impermeable to water but allows transport of electrolyte actively or passively V. In descending limb filtrate is hypertonic while in ascending limb filtrate is hypotonic The above characteristics are associated with -

Assertion :- The descending limb of loop of Henle is permeable to water but almost impermeable to electrolytes. Reason :- Henle's loop plays a significant role in the maintenance of high osmolarity of medullary interstitial fluid.

Which of the following statements about the functioning of the kidney is CORRECT ? I. On a average , 1100-1200 ml of blood is filtered by the kidneys per minute which constitute roughly 1/5th of the blood pumped out by both the Ventricles of the heart in a minute . II. JGA is a special sensitive region formed by cellular modifications in the distal convoluted tubule and glomerulus at the location of their contact . III. The ascending limb of Henle's loop is impermeable to water but allows transport of electrolytes. IV. The collecting duct allows passage of small amounts of urea into the medullary interstitium to keep up the osmolality.
