Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the question regarding which components of glomerular filtrate are rapidly reabsorbed actively by blood, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Glomerular Filtrate**: - Glomerular filtrate is the fluid that is filtered from the blood through the glomerulus into the Bowman's capsule. It contains water, glucose, amino acids, and creatinine. 2. **Components of Glomerular Filtrate**: ...

How many of the following statements are wrong w.r.t glomerular filtration/ultrfiltration? a. On an average, 1100 - 1200 ml of blood is filtered by kidneys per minute b. The normal glomerular hydrostatic pressure is 10 mm Hg c. The glomerular filtration rate in a healthy individual is about 125 ml/min or 180 L/day d. The glomerular filtration consists of glucose, amino acids, hormones, vitamins, urea, lipids, creatinine, uric acid, electrolytes, (Na^(+) , K^(+) , Ca^(2+) , Mg^(2+) , HCO_3^(-)) etc. e. Glomerular filtration is not dependent on myogenic control

Which of the following statements are correct? (i). Reabsorption of water occurs passively in the initial segment of nephron. (ii). Nitrogenous wastes are absorbed by passive transport. (iii). Conditional reabsorption of Na^(+) and water takes palce in DCT. (iv). DCT reabsorbs HCO_(3)^(-) (v). DCT is capable of selective secretion of H^(+),K^(+) and NH_(3) to maintain pH and Na^(+)-K^(+) balance in blood. (vi). Substance like glucose, amino acids, Na^(+) , etc,. it the filtrate are reabsorbed actively.
