concentrations(electrolytes) and water balance -
excretion or reabsorption
metabolic waste kidney filters - answer co2 -
generated from oxidative phos
nitrogenous waste - break down of proteins and
deamination of AA (ammonia, add ion to make urea
which can be filtered out in urine)
kidney as a solid organ - answer huge numbers of
tiny tubules, capillaries that are mashed together
to give appearance of a solid organ
actually a tubule organ
cortex of kidney - answer outer portion of kidney,
contains large numbers of renal corpuscles -

ascending loop of henle - answer reabsorbs Na+
and Cl- from the filtrate into the interstitial fluid
