Chapter 49, Problem 3A

Diuretics are drugs that can be used to treat high blood pressure by increasing urinary output. Possible mechanisms of action in the kidney include

a. increasing ADH secretion.

b. inhibition of NaCl reabsorption from the loop of Henle or the proximal tubule.

c. increasing permeability of the collecting duct.

d. increasing NaCl reabsorption in the proximal tubule.

If aldosterone was inhibited, which of the following would be affected?   A. Na+/K+ pump activity in the descending limb of Henle.  B. Na+ reabsorption in the proximal tubule.  C. Transcellular transportation in the distal convoluted tubule.   D. K+ reabsorption in the proximal
The major action of ADH in the kidneys is to:a. increase water absorption by the proximal convoluted tubule.b. increase glomerular filtration rate.c. increase water reabsorption by the collecting duct.d. increase potassium’s excretion.
The result of renal autoregulation is(are): A. Minimize loss of water in urine after an increase of cardiac output B. Minimize decrease of ECF after an increase of cardiac output C. Minimize effect of increased systemic pressure on urine output OD. Minimize loss of sodium in urine after an increase of cardiac output OE. All of the above
