- Part A Why is control over blood [Ca2+] and [Red Blood Cell] crucial? Choose one hormone involved in either of these homeostatic systems that regulate the concentration of these ions/cells and describe how it functions in homeostasis. Remember to include the name of the gland that secretes it. Part B Choose one molecule that is reabsorbed by the nephron and describe the process by which it is reabsorbed.arrow_forwardMatch the type of fish with their excretory strategy marine fish freshwater fish sharks [Choose ] [Choose ] slowly lose salts and water over time and excrete salts using a rectal gland and gills excrete large volumes of water as urine and do not drink water drink water and excrete salts using their gills drink water and eat salts slowly gain salts and water over time and excrete salts using a rectal gland and gills excrete large volumes of water as urine and must drink waterarrow_forwardNephron Structure and Circulation Fill in the blanks to complete some thoughts on how the nephron works. The blood first enters the (21), which filters small molecules out of the afferent arteriole. Larger molecules such as (22) do not enter the nephron. Proteins (Can or Can not?, 23) enter the nephron. Amino acids and glucose are placed back into the blood stream by the cells of the (24). As the material that becomes urine travels down the descending limb of the loop, a good amount of (25) is removed. The ascending limb is responsible for removing (26). through the process of active transport. Urine is further concentrated by removal of some water in the collecting duct.arrow_forward
- Explain how the gastric glands produce hydrochloric acidand why this produces an alkaline tidearrow_forwardpig Explain how the nephron of the kidney removes waste while retaining the essential components of the blood.arrow_forwardIn humans - Explain the events in regulation of water intake and regulation of water output (dehydration and excess water intake).arrow_forward
- The desert kangaroo rat does not produce dilute, liquid urine, but instead produces thick, highlyconcentrated urine. Explain how having loops of Henle that are proportionally longer than otherterrestrial animals allows for this. How is production of thick, concentrated urine advantageous toa desert animal?arrow_forwardHow is chyme moved from the stomach to the duodenum?a. Each peristaltic wave in the stomach results in some movement of chyme to the duodenum.b. It moves in response to a negative-feedback mechanism.c. Movement is possible when the pyloric valve opens.d. Movement is possible when the cardiac sphincter opens.e. Chyme moves to the duodenum as soon as it reaches a pH greater than 2.arrow_forward1. List and describe the three main organs of the excretory system. Explain the function of each part. 2. Describe what happens inside the filtering unit of the kidney 3. How do the kidneys help maintain homeostasis in the body? 4. Describe how guard cells regulate transpiration 5. Shortly after you drink a large glass of water, you will feel the urge to urinate. Explain this observation. Begin by tracing the path of water, starting at the stomach, and ending with the arrival of urine in the bladder.arrow_forward
- Mentions two secretions and indicates their role in the digestion process in the physiology of animals.arrow_forwardThe time you woke up in the morning, you drink 2 glasses of water. Shortly after drinking you feel the need to urinate. Why is this so? Explain your answer by tracing the path of water from the stomach up to the urinary bladder.arrow_forwardThe pancreases secretes insulin which is made up of chain of 51 amino acids. How is insulin able to enter the bloodstream despite its relatively large size? 1. The pancreas contains continuous capillatries. 2. The pancreas contains cell that are very good at exocytosic which creastes a larher concentration of isulin in the interstitial fluid that diffuses into the blood. 3. The pansrea contains fenestrated cappilaries. 4. Insullin is hydropholic so it can diffuse across cell membranesarrow_forward
