#1

Both central and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus are characterized by _____ urine osmolality

#2

In addition to ICF and ECF, a small _____ fluid compartment consists of cerebrospinal, pleural, peritoneal, and digestive fluids

#3

Aldosterone upregulates _____ channels on the apical membranes of the principal cells, increasing K+ excretion

#4

Which receptor does antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin) bind to regulate serum osmolarity?_____

#5

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

#6

Aldosterone upregulates _____ on the apical membrane of the principal cells, increasing Na+ reabsorption

#7

The corticopapillary osmotic gradient is established, in part, by _____ multiplication

#8

The Na+ reabsorption mechanism of the thick ascending limb is _____-dependent (increased Na+ delivery causes increased reabsorption)

#9

The [TF/P]glucose and [TF/P]AA ratios _____ over the course of the PCT

#10
