The juxtaglomerular apparatus regulates the filtration rate by __________Blank.Multiple Choicecausing increased osmotic pressure in the glomerular capsulecausing vasodilation of the peritubular capillariescausing vasoconstriction of the peritubular capillariescausing vasoconstriction of both the afferent and efferent arterioles

Which of the following would increase the rate of glomerular filtration?Multiple ChoiceConstriction of the afferent arterioleDecreased blood pressureDilation of the efferent arterioleIncreased blood pressure

The efferent arteriole is stimulated to vasoconstrict. What effect will this have on glomerular filtration rate?Multiple ChoiceGlomerular filtration rate will decrease.Glomerular filtration rate will increase.Glomerular filtration will stop.

If the renal efferent arterioles dilate while the afferent arterioles remain unchanged, the glomerular filtration rate: Question 41Select one:a.decreases due to a decrease in glomerular capillary blood pressureb.decreases due to an increase in glomerular capillary blood pressurec.increases due to a decrease in glomerular capillary blood pressured.increases due to an increase in glomerular capillary blood pressuree.does not change

Once in the glomerular capsule, the filtrate then moves into the __________Blank.Multiple Choiceminor calyxrenal pelvisrenal tubuleureter

Why do water and small molecules move from the glomerulus into the filtrate?Multiple Choicediffusion down the concentration gradientglomerular blood pressureactive transportsecretiondiffusion against the concentration gradient
