The _____ ratio is used as a marker for water reabsorption along the nephron
#2
_____ clearance can be used to calculate effective renal plasma flow (eRPF) because it is both filtered and secreted
#3
Renal blood flow (RBF) remains relatively constant between blood pressure ranges of _____ to 200 mmHg
#4
PCT cells are involved in sustaining _____ which increases solute and water reabsorption in response to increased GFR.
#5
When CH2O is _____, urine is hypo-osmotic relative to plasma
#6
The amount of _____ excreted in the urine is directly proportional to muscle mass
#7
_____ is cleared only via glomeruli with no tubular excretion and hence used for direct measurement of GFR.
#8
A good rule of thumb for the relationship between GFR and serum creatinine is that everytime GFR _____, serum creatinine doubles
#9
What formula is used to calculate clearance?
_____
#10
What equation may be used to calculate free-water clearance (CH2O)?
_____
