Q. 174. select the incorrect match
1)Renal calculi- Insoluble masses of crystallised salts in kidney
2) Uremia - Presence of blood in urine
3) Glycosuria - presence of glucose in urine
4) Glomerulonephritis - Inflammation of glomeruli of kidney ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Many diseases affect kidney function by attacking the glomeruli, the tiny units within the kidney where blood is cleaned. Glomerular diseases include many conditions with a variety of genetic and environmental causes, but they fall into two major categories:

Glomerulonephritis describes the inflammation of the membrane tissue in the kidney that serves as a filter, separating wastes and extra fluid from the blood.

Glomerulosclerosis describes the scarring or hardening of the tiny blood vessels within the kidney.

Although glomerulonephritis and glomerulosclerosis have different causes, they can both lead to kidney failure.
