During hemodialysis:
I: | Cellophane tube in a dialysing unit acts as artificial kidney. |
II: | Heparin is added to the blood before it is passed on to the dialysing unit. |
III: | The cleared blood is pumped back to the body through a vein after adding anti-heparin to it. |
1. Only I is correct
2. Only I and II are correct
3. Only II and III are correct
4. I, II and III are correct
An excessive loss of body fluid can:
1. | activate osmoreceptors, stimulating hypothalamus to release ADH and thereby preventing diuresis |
2. | switch off osmoreceptors, suppressing release of ADH promoting diuresis |
3. | activate osmoreceptors, stimulating hypothalamus to release ADH and thereby promoting diuresis |
4. | switch off osmoreceptors, suppressing release of ADH preventing diuresis |
The increasing gradient of osmolarity in medullary interstitium, during concentration of urine, is mainly caused by reabsortion of:
1. | NaCl from ascending limb of loop of Henle and of urea by collecting duct |
2. | NaCl from descending limb of loop of Henle and of urea by collecting duct |
3. | NaCl from ascending limb of loop of Henle and of urea by PCT |
4. | NaCl from descending limb of loop of Henle and of urea by PCT |
In hemodialysis, the role of artificial kidney is actually played by:
1. | Dialysate | 2. | Blood pump |
3. | Water system | 4. | Cellulose membrane |
The proximal convoluted tubule of the nephron is lined by:
1. simple ciliated cuboidal epithelium
2. simple ciliated columnar epithelium
3. compound cuboidal brush bordered epithelium
4. simple cuboidal brush bordered epithelium
Identify the incorrectly matched pair [assume normal physiological conditions]:
1. | GFR – 125 ml/min |
2. | Amount of urea produced – 25 to 30 mg/day |
3. | Average urine output – 1 to 1.5 liter/day |
4. | Average amount of blood filtered by kidney – 1100 to 1200 ml/min |
Removal rate of carbon dioxide by lungs is approximately:
1. | 125 ml/minute | 2. | 200 ml/minute |
3. | 280 ml/minute | 4. | 325 ml/minute |
A capillary network around the renal tubule is formed by:
1. Afferent arteriole | 2. Efferent arteriole |
3. Vasa recta | 4. Arcuate artery |
