The correct Answer is:
To solve the matching question, we will analyze each part of the nephron and its corresponding function. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown: 1. **Loop of Henle (A)**: - The Loop of Henle is primarily responsible for the concentration of urine. It helps in creating a concentration gradient in the medulla of the kidney, which allows for the reabsorption of water and solutes, thus concentrating the urine. - **Match**: Loop of Henle → Plays a role in concentration of urine (5). 2. **Renal Artery (B)**: - The renal artery carries blood to the kidneys from the aorta. It is the blood vessel that supplies the kidneys with blood for filtration. - **Match**: Renal artery → Carries blood to the kidney (1). 3. **Proximal Convoluted Tubule (C)**: - The proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) is the site where a significant amount of reabsorption occurs. It reabsorbs water, ions, and nutrients from the filtrate back into the blood. - **Match**: Proximal convoluted tubule → Area of high amount of reabsorption takes place (2). 4. **Glomerulus (D)**: - The glomerulus is a network of capillaries located at the beginning of the nephron. It is responsible for the filtration of blood, where the blood plasma is filtered to form urine. - **Match**: Glomerulus → Filtration of blood (4). 5. **Distal Convoluted Tubule (E)**: - The distal convoluted tubule (DCT) is involved in the secretion of ions, particularly potassium (K⁺) and hydrogen (H⁺), and it plays a role in the final adjustments of urine concentration under the influence of hormones like aldosterone. - **Match**: Distal convoluted tubule → Main area of K⁺ and H⁺ secretion (3). Now, putting it all together, we have the following matches: - A → 5 (Loop of Henle → Plays a role in concentration of urine) - B → 1 (Renal artery → Carries blood to the kidney) - C → 2 (Proximal convoluted tubule → Area of high amount of reabsorption takes place) - D → 4 (Glomerulus → Filtration of blood) - E → 3 (Distal convoluted tubule → Main area of K⁺ and H⁺ secretion) Thus, the correct pairing sequence is: **5, 1, 2, 4, 3**.
