#1

_____ (aldosterone or ADH) primarily regulates osmolarity; may also respond to low volume states

#2

Aldosterone upregulates the _____ pump on the basolateral membrane of the principal cells

#3

Thiazide diuretics increase Ca2+ _____ (excretion or reabsorption)

#4

Which areas (2) of the nephron are responsible for adjustments of K+ excretion?_____

#5

The _____ cells of the collecting duct are the major site of Na+, K+, and H2O transport

#6

ADH-activated V2 receptors cause translocation of _____ channels to the renal apical membrane, causing increased reabsorption of free water
