If a person had higher than normal levels of plasma proteins, would glomerular filtration rate increase, decrease, or stay the same? Assume that autoregulation is not occurring. Explain why GFR would change this way.
Select ALL of the following that are TRUE about the venous end of a capillary bed: A--Proteins are pulling fluids in to the capillary B--Blood Colloid Osmotic Pressure < Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure C--Blood Colloid Osmotic Pressure > Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure D--Filtration is occurring E--Net Filtration Pressure is negative F--Hydrostatic pressure is pushing plasma out of the capillary G--Net Filtration Pressure is positive H--Reabsorption is occurring
7. Decide whether the following changes would increase or decrease peritubular capillary reabsorption (4 pts.) a. Increased colloid osmotic pressure in the peritubular capillary: increase b.

3. In the kidney there are two separate capillary beds. Each has its own set of Starling forces for filtration and reabsorption. Solve the following sets of data. 4 points The first (glomerulus) capillary bed has an HPv of 58 mmHg at the afferent arterial end, the blood has an v of 28, and the efferent arterial end of the capillary has an HPv of 35. The HPt in the Bowman's capsule is 3 mmHg and the OPt is 2...
