Kidneys need to maintain extracellular homeostasis and also maintain blood pressure, therefore __________ is tightly regulated
Back
Card 18
Front
Hydrostatic pressure must be tightly regulated in the kidney becuse if it rises, NEP rises and therefore ___________ rises
Back
Card 19
Front
Intrinsic regulation is renal autoregulation, this is achieved thorough the myogenic mechanism and ___________________

Card 20
Front
They myogenic mechanism reflects vascular smooth muscle, if blood pressure rises, the _________ arteriole constricts to reduce the blood flow entering the glomerulus
Back
Card 21
Front
The tubuloglomerular feedbacl mechanism constricts the afferent arteriole when the NaCl concentrations are high, which ____________
Back
Card 22
Front
Autoregulatory mechanisms maintain a relatively constant GFR over ____________
Back
Card 23
Front
Tubular reabsorption starts as soon as the filtrate enters
Back
Card 24
Front
Reabsorbed substances follow either the transcellular or ________ route
Back
Card 25

In the ___________ route, the substances move through the apical membrane, cytosol, basolateral membrane and then the endothelium of the peritubular capillaries
