What are the two capillary beds that are in series in the excretory system of humans?
The first capillary bed in the series is the glomerular capillary, where filtration occurs. The efferent arteriole on the distal end of the glomerular capillary. Objects it to the next capillary bed in the series: the peritubular capillary. This is where secretion and reabsorbtion take place. This type of system is an example of an arterial portal system.
Where does the process of filtration take place?
glomerulus
Where does glucose take place?
Glucose reabsorption takes place in the proximal renal tubule. This tubule is a portion of the nephron that contains fluid. The functions of the nephron include the reabsorption and secretion of various substances like ions, glucose, and amino acids.
Can you take amoxicillin with cirrhosis of liver?
Yes , because amoxicillin is metabolize and excreted basically by the kidney. Doses and time between doses might be monitored according to specific formulas, doses, creatinine clearance and excretion and glomerular filtration rate, etc
What substance tells the kidneys to take water from the nephron?
diuretic
Where does most absorption take place in the kidney?
the majority occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule
What is the symbol equation for zinc plus hydrochloric acid ----- zinc plus chloride hydrogen?
In which of the following does a chemical change take place? Distillation, evaporation, filtration or neutralization?
What mixtures can be separated by filtration and distillationBoth methods take advantage of?
Filtration: separation of water from sand.Distillation: separation of ethanol from water.Each method has specific applications.
What method does filtration and distillation take advantage of?
This depends on the considered application.
What is the membrane of a nephron?
The membrane of a nephron is composed of a layer of epithelial cells that line the renal tubules. This membrane is selectively permeable, allowing for the reabsorption and secretion of substances such as water, ions, and solutes as filtrate passes through the nephron. It plays a crucial role in the filtration and regulation of fluid and electrolyte balance in the body.
What can be done too unpollute water?
On a small scale, there are various filtration methods such as reverse osmosis and carbon filtration that can remove many common pollutants. Some pollution could also be removed by distillation of the water as well. On a world wide scale, the best thing to do is not pollute the water in the first place and hope that nature can take care of the problem.
Which type of epithelial tissue is present in the organs where exchange of substance take place?
Simple squamous epithelium is the type of epithelial tissue present in the organs where exchange of substances takes place, such as in the lungs for gas exchange or in the kidney for filtration. This type of tissue is thin and allows for efficient diffusion of substances.
