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 |
Refer the given figure of nephron.
Identify A, B, C, and D and select the correct option regarding them.
1. | A - Glomerulus - a tuft of capillaries formed by afferent arteriole. |
2. | B - PCT- reabsorption of \(HCO^-_3\) and selective secretion of H+ and K+ occurs here. |
3. | C - DCT- almost all glucose, amino acids, water, Na+, K+, and uric acid are absorbed here. |
4. | D - collecting duct - extends from the cortex of the kidney to the inner parts of the medulla; a large amount of water is secreted in this region. |
The presence of which of the following in urine would be abnormal?
1. sodium | 2. glucose |
3. urea | 4. creatinine |
Presence of ketonuria and glycosuria is indicative of:
1. Renal failure | 2. Diabetes mellitus |
3. Nephrotic syndrome | 4. Renal stones |
Most renal calculi are:
1. | oxalates | 2. | citrates |
3. | urates | 4. | carbonates |
Uremia patients can have all the following except:
1. Increased blood glucose between meals
2. Anemia
3. Osteomalacia
4. An acidic blood pH
I: | A: the blood is taken out of the body from an artery for purification; B: the purified blood is returned to the body by a vein. |
II: | Heparin is an anticoagulant that is added to the blood to prevent its coagulation; Dialyzer acts as the artificial kidney |
