Match the Renal Structure or Activity with the Correct Characteristic

Question 4

Matching

Match the renal structure or activity with the correct characteristic.

Premises:
Variable water and sodium reabsorption occur here under hormonal control.
Carries blood from one capillary network to another capillary network.
Passage of substances from the tubular lumen into the peritubular capillaries.
Tuft of capillaries that forms the filtrate.
Supplies the renal tissue with O2 and nutrients.
Collecting tubules empty into this structure
Tube through which urine leaves the body.
Stores the urine.
Collects the glomerular filtrate.
Responsible for the vertical osmotic gradient in the medulla of the kidney.
Glucose and amino acid reabsorption occur here.
Passage of substances from the peritubular into the tubular lumen.
Urine is forced through this structure by peristalsis.
Carries blood to the glomerulus.
Passage of protein-free plasma into Bowman's capsule.
Functional unit of the kidney.
Responses:
Distal and collecting capillaries tubules
Tubular secretion
Efferent arteriole

Bowman's capsule
Urinary bladder
Loop of Henle
Glomerulus
Tubular reabsorption
Nephron
Proximal tubule
Afferent arteriole
Urethra
