New cards
What type of fluid is the loop of henle responsible for producing?
Hypo or hyperosmotic fluid depending on the water needs of the body
2
New cards
What is reabsorbed in the thing descending loop?
Water
3
New cards
Is the water hypo or hyperosmotic at the end of tDLH?
hyperosmotic
4
New cards
What part of the loop of henle is responsible for reabsorption of NaCl?
tALH and TAL
5
New cards
How is NaCl reabsorbed in the tALH?
passively diffuses out
6
New cards
How is NaCL reabsorbed in the TAL?
Actively transported out by Na/K/2Cl
7
New cards
What is the Vte of the TAL?
Positive
8
New cards
Why does the TAL have a positive Vte?
An abundance of apical K channels
9

What stimulates paracellular cation movement?
Positive Vte
10
New cards
How is Na reabsorbed in the TAL?
transcellular and paracellular routes

Transcellular route
12
New cards
What inhibits the Na/K/2Cl cotransporter?
Loop diuretics
13
New cards
How is potassium and calcium reabsorbed in TAL?

16
New cards
How is magnesium reabsorbed by TAL?
Paracellular diffusion
17
New cards
