Stop & Think Questions
Renal processing of plasma glucose does
not
normally include
You correctly answered: secretion.
1
How does antidiuretic hormone (ADH) affect the renal processing of plasma glucose?
You correctly answered: ADH has no direct effects on renal processing of plasma glucose.
2
Glucose reabsorption in the nephron includes
You correctly answered: secondary active transport along the apical membrane of
proximal tubule cells.
3
Because carrier proteins are required to move glucose from the lumen of the nephron
into the interstitial spaces, which of the following statements is
false
?
You correctly answered: The number of glucose carriers in a nephron can be altered as
needed by the body.
4
Predict Question: What will happen to the glucose concentration in the urinary bladder as
glucose carriers are added to the proximal tubule?
Your answer: The glucose concentration will decrease.
1
Why is the glucose concentration the same in both Bowman's capsule and the urinary
bladder?
You correctly answered: Glucose cannot be reabsorbed in the absence of carriers.
1
Is a transport maximum reached in these experiments?
You correctly answered: yes.
