| 1. | The first segment of these tubules is the proximal convoluted tubule.
|
| 2. | Atrial natriuretic peptide causes the distal convoluted tubule to secrete more sodium.
|
| 3. | This hypotonic filtrate is passed to the distal convoluted tubule in the renal cortex.
|
| 4. | Fluid in the filtrate entering the proximal convoluted tubule is reabsorbed into the peritubular capillaries.
|
| 5. | The urinary pole is where the corpuscle opens into the lumen of the proximal convoluted tubule.
|
| 6. | The distal convoluted tubule has a different structure and function to that of the proximal convoluted tubule.
|
| 7. | The distal convoluted tubule has a different structure and function to that of the proximal convoluted tubule.
|
| 8. | The renal organic anion transporters OAT1, S2 segment of the proximal convoluted tubules of the kidneys.
|
| 9. | Much of the ion transport taking place in the distal convoluted tubule is regulated by the endocrine system.
|
| 10. | In the presence of parathyroid hormone, the distal convoluted tubule reabsorbs more calcium and secretes more phosphate.
