All the following are true for concentration of filtrate in the renal tubule, except : 1) Counter current flow of blood through the two limbs of vasa recta 2) Counter current flow of filtrate in the two limbs of Henle’s loop 3) Proximity between the Henle’s loop and collecting tubule 4) Increasing osmolarity towards the inner medullary interstitium
Answers
Answer:
Proximity between the Henle’s loop and collecting tubule
Step-by-step explanation:
NCERT has used 3 words
- Counter current
- Presence of interstitial gradient
- Increased osmalirity
concentration of filtrate in the renal tubule, except (3) Proximity between the Henle’s loop and collecting tubule
Explanation:
1.Henle loop, a lengthy U-shaped part of the tubule that transports urine throughout each nephron of a reptile, bird, or mammal's kidney. The loop of Henle's main purpose is to recover water and sodium chloride from urine.
2.Function of Henle's Loop : Managing potassium, calcium, and magnesium excretion while using the least amount of energy. Acid-base equilibrium homeostasis through bicarbonate and ammonia excretion.
3. Function of collecting tube: The final segment of a long, twisting tube that collects urine from the nephrons (cellular structures in the kidney that filter blood and create urine) and transports it to the renal pelvis and ureters.
