(A) The ascending limb of loop of Henle is impermeable to water (B) The descending limb of loop of Henle is impermeable to water (C) The ascending limb of loop of Henle is permeable to water (D) The descending limb of loop of Henle is permeable to electrolytes,

Read the given statements and select the correct options: Statemetn-I: The ascending limb of loop of Henle is impermeable to water. Statemetn-II: Hence the filtrate becomes hypertonic.

Assertion: In the descending limb of loop of Henle the urine is hypotoonic, while in ascending limb of loop of Henle, the urine is hypertonic. Reason: Descending limb is impermeable to water while ascending limb is impermeable to Na^(+)

Assertion A: The renal fluid becomes increasingly concentrated when it flows down in the descending limb of loop of Henle towards the inner medulla but its concentration decreases in the ascending limb when it flows towards the cortex Reason R: The descending limb of the loop of Henle reabsorbs water, the ascending limb is impermeable to water but salts are reabsorbed

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 are correct? (i). Renal vein takes blood away from kidney. (ii). Unine gets diluted in ascending limb of loop of Henle. (iii). Podocyte occur in inner wall of Bowman's capsule. (iv). Ultrafiltrate/nephric filtrate is plasma minus proteins.
