Indicate whether the GFR will tend to rise or fall in response to an increase in each of the following: the glomerular filtration pressure, the glomerular capillary hydrostatic pressure, the glomerular capillary osmotic pressure, the hydrostatic pressure in Bowman's capsule, the osmotic pressure in Bowman's capsule, the concentration of proteins in the plasma.

a:ry i 29 ~O0¥1420 < Jlgull = The clearance test of a substance such as creatinine is used for the estimation of glomerular filtration rate and an index of renal function. Which of the following are the characteristics of substance ideal for estimation of GFR? Not reabsorbed secreted or metabolized in the kidney Freely filtered into Bowman's capsule All of them Stable plasma concentration that is easily measured 0 OO O dihvl haa
Given: Inulin is freely filtered in the glomerulus and not secreted nor reabsorbed in any appreciable amount at the nephron. If the concentration of inulin in the urine is 20 mg/mL, the concentration in blood plasma is 0.2 mg/mL plasma, and the rate of urine flow is 1 mL/min.  a. What is GFR for this person? (Answer part a)
Changes in blood pressure ( MAP ) have the potential to alter glomerular filtration rate ( GFR ) by directly changing which of the following factors below ? glomerular capillary hydrostatic pressure Bowman's capsule hydrostatic pressure glomerular osmotic pressure Bowman's capsule osmotic pressure
