Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

13 notecards = 4 pages (4 cards per page)

Which of the following is true about inulin?

All inulin is either filtered by the glomerulus or secreted by the peritubular capillaries

Most inulin filtered by the glomerulus is reabsorbed by the peritubular capillaries

Inulin is removed from the peritubular capillaries by tubular secretion

Some inulin filtered by the glomerulus is reabsorbed by the peritubular capillaries

back 10

no data

Tubular secretion occurs when?

Filtered fluid passes from the nephron tubules to the efferent arteriole

Filtered fluid leaves the glomerulus and enters the glomerulus capsule

waste products from blood pass from the peritubular capillaries to the nephron tubules

Filtered fluid passes from the nephron tubules to the peritubular capillaries

Filtered fluid leaves the afferent arteriole and enters the glomerulus capsule

If the transport maximum of glucose is 320 mg/minute, what will happen if the tubular fluid contains 350 mg/minute of glucose?

glucose transport will increase to 350mg/minute

glucose will be excreted into the urine
