Question 1: What regulates digestive motility?
Answer:
enteric nervous system
Question 2: What is the function of chief cells and where are they located?
Answer:
secrete gastric lipase and pepsinogen; located in lower half of gastric glands
Question 3: What are the functions of the kidney?
Answer:
filter blood plasma, separate waste from useful chemicals, returns useful substances to blood, eliminates wastes, regulates blood volume/pressure by eliminating/conserving water, regulate osmolarity of body fluids, secretes renin Question 4: Is the thick or thin segment of the nephron loop impermeable to water?
Answer:
thin segment
Question 5: What should normal urine from a healthy person not contain?
Answer:
blood, WBCs, sugar (glucose)-diabetes
Question 6: How do the kidneys respond to acidosis?
Answer:
The kidneys will secrete H2PO4. The kidneys compensate for pH imbalances of respiratory origin.Question 7: Why does glomerular filtration occur in respect to glomerular oncotic pressure and glomerular blood pressure?
Answer:
when glomerular oncotic and blood pressures are high, glomerular filtration will occur
Question 8: Where is most of the body water located?
Answer:
blood cells Question 9: What are the components of bile and which one has digestive properties?
Answer:
Bilirubin (pigment), Urobilinogen (brown color of feces), bile acids (steroids synthesized from cholesterol), and Lecithin (a phospholipid-aids in digestion) Question 10: How are fats digested? (Which enzymes are used and where are they located?)
Answer:
lipases located in pancreas
Question 11: What cells secrete hydrochloric acid?
Answer:
parietal cells
Question 12: Which nutrients are absorbed without digestion?
Answer:
Vitamins, free amino acids, minerals, cholesterol, and water
Question 13: A renal pyramid voids urine into what structure(s)?
Answer:
collecting tubules Question 14: Which area of the nephron and kidney is primarily responsible for maintaining the salinity gradient of the renal medulla?
Answer:
juxtamedullary nephrons
Question 15: What is the role of aldosterone?
Answer:
"salt retaining hormone;" increases Na+ reabsorption and water and the release of K secretion. This increases blood volume, therefore increases blood pressure.Question 16: Why do women have a tendency to retain water during part of the menstrual cycle?
Answer:
estrogen mimics the action of aldosterone
Question 17: Explain the sodium-glucose transport protein and its role.
Answer:
a family of glucose transporters; transport glucose across the apical membrane against an uphill glucose gradient
Question 18: What situations would reduce the glomerular filtration rate?
Answer:
(this refers to different pressures; high to low) Vasoconstriction of the afferent arteriole
Question 19: What does the large intestine absorb?
Answer:
Water, Na+ and K, bacteria that multiply and live off the substances in the intestine Question 20: If you know the urine output of a patient in the hospital (mL/min) & the concentration of urea in mg/mL; and you are then told the urea concentration of 0.4 mg/mL in the blood, be able to calculate the percentage of cleared urea from glomerular filtrate?
Answer:
- C=UV/P (C=renal clearance, U=waste concentration of urine, V=rate of urine output, P=waste
concentration of plasma)
Question 21: What is the normal Ph range of tissue fluid?
Answer:
7.35-7.45
Question 22: What are the principal cations in the ICF and ECF?
Answer:
ICF-potassium; ECF-sodium Question 23: Where does the transition from an afferent arteriole to an efferent arteriole occur in the nephron?
Answer:
glomerulus
Question 24: What activates the secretion of pepsinogen?
Answer:
HCl (hydrochloric acid)
Question 25: What stimulates the process of defecation?
Answer:
stretching of rectum
Question 26: What is micturition and what governs its onset?
Answer:
elimination of urine from the body and its onset is governed by the filling of the bladder Question 27: In a healthy kidney, what substances are not filtered by the glomerulus?
Answer:
protein, blood cells, large anions, minerals, hormones, and molecules >8nm in diameter Question 28: Where is a person's fluid intake regulated and what type of sensor is involved?
Answer:
via the skin and the kidneys; osmoreceptors in hypothalamus
