11.3 The Kidney and Osmoregulation
NATURE OF SCIENCE
Investigation were carried out ot determine how desert animals prevent water loss in their wastes
OSMOREGULATORS VS OSMOCONFORMERS
The Malpighian tubule system in insects and the kidney carry out omoregulation and removal of nitrogenous wastes
The composition of blood in the renal artery is different from tha tin the renal vein
The ultrastructure of the glomerulus and Bowman's capsule facilitate ultrafiltration
The proximal convoluted tubule selectively reabsorbs useful substances by active transport
The loop of Henle maintain hypertonic conditions in the medulla
ADH (vasopressin) controls reabsorption of water in the collecting duct
The length of the loop of Henle is positively correlated with the need for water conservation in animals
The type of nitrogenous waste in animals is correlated with evolutionary history and habitat
Consequences of dehydration and overhydration
Blood cells, glucose, proteins and drugs are detected in urinary tests
