The accompanying figure shows reabsorption of some constituents of glomerular filtrate in different parts of mammalian nephron. What can these constituents be?

The glomerulus of the nephron filtered the blood, and it is called glomerular filtrate. While it is passed through the different segments of nephron, certain substances are selectively reabsorbed. What are the substance reabsorbed and in which segment. Explain.

Identify the biological term. Excretion, glomerulus, urinary bladder, glomerular filtrate, ureters, urine, Bowman's capsule, urinary system, reabsorption, micturition, osmosis, proteins. (a) A liquid which gathers in the bladder. (b) Produced when blood is filtered in a Bowman's capsule. (c) Temporary storage of urine. (d) A ball of inter twined capillaries. (e) Removal of unwanted substances from the body. (f) Each contains a glomerulus. (g) Carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. (h) Scientific term for urination. (i) Regulation of water and dissolved substances in blood and tissue fluid. (j) Consists of the kidneys, ureters and bladder. (k) Removal of useful substances from glomerular filtrate. (l) What solute the blood contains that are not present in the glomerular filtrate?

Assertion (A) : Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the volume of filtrate formed min-' in all nephrons (glomerulus) of both the kidneys. Reason (R) : In adults the GFR is approximately 120-125 mL/min.

A container contains water up to a height of 20 cm and there is a point source at the centre of the bottom of the container. A rubber ring of radius r floats centrally on the water. The ceiling of the room is 2.0 m above the water surface. (a) Find the radius of the shadow of the ring formed on the ceiling if r = 15 cm. (b) Find the maximum value of r for which the shadow of the ring is formed on the ceiling. Refractive index of water =4/3.

A motorcycle has to move with a consatnt speed on an overbridge which is in the form of as circular arc of radius R and has a total length L. Suppose the motorcycle starts from the highest point. a) what can its maximum velocity be for which the contact with the road is not broken at the highest point? b) If the motorcycle goes at speed 1/sqrt2 times the maximum found in part a. where will it lose the contact with the road? c) What maximum uniform speed can it maintain on the bridge if it does not lose contact anywhere on the bridge?

Identify the biological term Homeostasis, excretion, glomerulus,urea, glomerular filtration, ureters, urine, Bowman’s capsule, urinary system, reabsorption, micturition, osmosis, glomerular capillaries via efferent arteriole, proteins. The process by which water is transported in the proximal convoluted tubule.
