28. The adult kidneys produce about _____ liters of filtrate daily, in contrast to the 2 to 4 liters
formed daily by all other capillary beds in the body combined - ✔✔d. 180
46. The hydrostatic pressure in the capsular space is higher than the hydrostatic pressure
surrounding most capillaries (in other areas of the body) because the filtrate is confined in a
small space with a narrow outlet - ✔✔true
39. __________ are thin membranes that extend across the filtration sites. - ✔✔b. site
diaphragms
2. In the tissues, when carbon dioxide enters the red cells, the carbonic anhydrase reaction
yields: - ✔✔c. bicarbonate ions
44. Parathyroid hormone increases calcium reabsorption in the proximal convoluted tubule -
✔✔false
16. An increase in the levels of BPG (2,3 bisphosphoglycerate) decreases hemoglobin's affinity
for oxygen, increasing oxygen unloading - ✔✔True
36. Antidiuretic hormone makes the ________ cells of the collecting ducts more permeable
to water by causing aquaporins to be inserted into their _____ membranes. - ✔✔d. principal,
apical
1. Select the correct statements about the neutral mechanism of respiratory control. - ✔✔d.
both a and c
13. Oxygen may be transported by bicarbonate ions - ✔✔false
42. The function of aldosterone is to: - ✔✔d. decrease arterial blood pressure
, 19. The largest amount of carbon dioxide is transported in the blood in the form of carbonic
anhydrase - ✔✔false
29. The left kidney lies slightly lower than the right kidney - ✔✔false
33. The movement of solutes between adjacent epithelial cells of the renal tubule is called
_____ transport. - ✔✔a. cocellular
37. The hydrostatic pressure in the glomerular capillaries, which is essentially glomerular
blood pressure, its about: - ✔✔b. 55mmHg
9. When the partial pressure of oxygen falls below _____ mmHg, it becomes the major
stimulus for increasing the rate of ventilation - ✔✔d. 60
47. Filtration occurs along the entire length of each glomerular capillary bed and reabsorption
does not occur as it would in other capillary beds - ✔✔true
3. When carbon dioxide binds to hemoglobin, it forms: - ✔✔a. carbminohemoglobin
30. The glomerular filtration rate is directly proportional to the filtration membrane
permeability - ✔✔true

the tubule - ✔✔false
18. The main oxygen sensors are in the carotid bodies - ✔✔true
31. The basement membranes of the filtration membrane electrically repels many positively
charged macromolecular cations such as plasma proteins - ✔✔false
