What is the correct order of the steps of function within the nephron?

Filtration, Reabsorption, Secretion

Secretion, Reabsorption, Filtration

Filtration, Secretion, Reabsorption

Secretion, Filtration, Reabsorption

Which portion of the nephron active pumps out Na+, with Cl- passively following, to create a salty medulla?

Both proximal convoluted tubule and ascending loop of Henle

Which statement best explains the flow of materials out of the nephron?

The active transport of Na+ (and thus Cl-) creates salt, which pulls water using a concentration gradient in an attempt to create equilibrium

The high pressure from the renal artery creates a force that pushes water through permeable areas, which creates an equilibrium in pressure

There is no explanation. The kidneys work randomly and it is amazing that they function correctly.

Water is actively transported out of the nephron and the nephron compensates by actively pushing out ions in an attempt to balance the charges

The main function of the urinary system is to:

Get rid of waste and extra fluid

What substances are not filtered from the blood during filtration?

Blood Cells and plasma proteins

Which processes below are active?

Re-absorption of amino acids and glucose

Which substance in urine is in the highest concentration?

sodium, chloride and other ions

Which substance in the filtrate is in the highest concentration?

sodium, chloride and other ions

Which substance needs to be completely filtered and excreted as it is highly toxic?
