Kidney Review Questions 1. What fraction of blood that flows through our system is “filtered out” by the kidney becoming waste (urine)? 2. What percentage of the water that flows into a nephron gets reabsorbed into the blood? 3. How many ml of water must you drink in 1 day to replenish the water lost to urine? 4. What is the difference between an excretion and a secretion? Give examples of each. 5. List 2 materials that are continuously being excreted be cells. Explain why each of the two are being excreted. 6. Which organ is responsible for detoxifying the blood of toxic byproducts of cellular metabolism? 7. What is removed from excess protein and what is produced when amino acids are deaminated? 8. Why does the liver chemically alter ammonia? 9. What does the liver add to ammonia and what is produced? 10. Explain how the process of “elimination” is different than the processes of excretion and secretion. 11. Provide 4 examples of eliminated material and include from what structure they are eliminated. 12. What is a nephron? 13. In your own words, explain each of the 3 stages of the action of a nephron. Be able to write an essay on this topic. 14. What is ADH? 15. What happens to the urine if ADH production is decreased? 16. What happens to the urine if ADH production is increased? 17.
