Which of the following statements best describes the function of the nephron loop?
The nephron loop uses passive transport of NaCl to create a concentration gradient used to actively transport water.
The nephron loop uses active transport of NaCl to create a concentration gradient used to passively transport water.
The nephron loop uses passive transport of NaCl to create a concentration gradient used to passively transport water.
The nephron loop uses active transport of NaCl to create a concentration gradient used to actively transport water.
Homework Answers
Answer:
The nephron loop uses active transport of NaCl to create a concentration gradient used to passively transport water.
Explanation:
Function of the Loop of Henle uses active absorption of NaCl (ascending limb) to drive the absorption of water (descending limb and collecting duct) & countercurrent multiplier.

Which of the following best describes what occurs during the electron transport chain? The diffusion of H+s provides the energy needed to make electrons move through the electron transport chain. Once the electrons reach oxygen, ATP is produced. O An H+ gradient is used to place oxygen at the end of the electron transport chain. The oxygen then pulls electrons towards it, which results in the synthesis of ATP. The energy of moving electrons is used to generate a proton...
