Homeostasis MCQs

Correct answer C. Filtered glucose exceeds the maximum carrying capacity of tubule carriers

Correct answer C. 10 mmHg

Correct answer C. 180 L

Correct answer C. Large volumes of dilute urine

Correct answer C. The efferent arteriole is narrower than the afferent arteriole

Correct answer C. Plasma albumin

Correct answer C. Proximal convoluted tubule

Correct answer D. Microvilli and many mitochondria

Correct answer A. It is permeable to water but relatively impermeable to salts

Correct answer D. Na⁺ and Cl⁻ are actively transported out while water cannot follow

Correct answer C. Building a high solute concentration in the medulla so that concentrated urine can be produced

Correct answer B. Neurosecretory cells of the hypothalamus

Correct answer A. It makes the distal tubule and collecting duct more permeable to water

Correct answer B. A rise in the solute concentration of blood plasma

Correct answer D. Glomerulus and Bowman's capsule

Correct answer B. ADH secretion falls and a large volume of dilute urine is produced

Correct answer A. Adrenal cortex

Correct answer A. Increased reabsorption of Na⁺ and secretion of K⁺ in the distal tubule and collecting duct

Correct answer B. Juxtaglomerular cells

Correct answer A. Renin release → angiotensin II formation → aldosterone secretion → more Na⁺ reabsorbed
