Each of the following statements concerning the kidney functions is true, EXCEPT:
Produce the urine
Conserve water, essential electrolytes, and metabolites
Secrete angiotensin
Remove waste products of metabolism from body
The following structures are located in, and make up, the kidney cortex, EXCEPT
Renal corpuscles
Proximal convoluted tubules
Transitional epithelium
Distal convoluted tubules
Each of the following statements concerning the nephrons is true, EXCEPT:
Empty into the minor calyx.
Are functional units of the kidney
Have the renal capsules
Include the proximal and distal convoluted tubules
Each of the following statements concerning the renal corpuscles is true, EXCEPT
Include the double-layered renal capsule
The capsular parietal layer consists of flat cells and surrounds the capsular space
The glomerulus contains continuous- type capillaries
The capsular visceral layer consists of podocytes and surrounds the capillary glomerulus
Each of the following statements concerning the renal filtration barrier is true, EXCEPT
Includes the endothelium of glomerular capillaries
Includes the capsular parietal layer
The glomerular basement membrane is the principal barrier component
The lamina densa of the glomerular basement membrane contains collagen network and acts as a physical filter.
Each of the following statements concerning the renal proximal convoluted tubules is true, EXCEPT
Are more tortuous and longer than the distal convoluted tubules
Possess cuboidal cells specialized for absorption and fluid transport
Lack the brush border and basal striations
Reabsorb 80% of primary filtrate
Each of the following statements concerning the renal distal convoluted tubules is true, EXCEPT
Have cuboidal cells with basal striation;
Their epithelial cells possess the brush border
Reabsorb Na+ under aldosterone control
Reabsorb water under ADH regulation
Each of the following statements concerning the renal collecting tubules is true, EXCEPT
Their cells possess the brush border
Are lined with the cuboidal or low columnar epithelium
Their epithelium includes dark and light cells
Water permeability of their epithelium is regulated by ADH
Each of the following statements concerning the renal macula densa is true, EXCEPT:
Is formed in the distal convoluted tubule at the site of tubule contact with the vascular pole of its parent renal corpuscle
Its cells produce renin.
Is formed in the distal convoluted tubule at the site of tubule contact with the vascular pole of its parent renal corpuscle
Its cells control NaCl concentration in the urine and regulate renin release
Each of the following statements concerning the renal juxtaglomerular cells is true, EXCEPT
Are located in afferent and sometimes in efferent arterioles
Are chemoreceptors and control the blood concentration of NaCl
Synthesize, store, and release renin
Are modified smooth muscle cells
Each of the following statements concerning the transitional epithelium is true, EXCEPT
Lines the mucosa of all excretory passages;
Its surface cells are dome-shaped and bulge into the lumen
Is highly permeable for salts and water
Consists of 5 or 6 layers in unstretched condition
Each of the following statements concerning the juxtamedullary nephrons is true, EXCEPT:
Are the principal nephrons producing the urine
diameters of their afferent and efferent arterioles are equal
Their corpuscles are in proximity to the base of medullary pyramids
Serve for the blood passage during exercise.
