T/F seawater fish - produce lots of urine, most ion, water and nitrogen excretion responsibilities met by gills and skin

F - produce small amts of urine; don't need distal convoluted tubules

T/F most animals maintain ion and water balance using some form of internal organ

T

uric acid excretion advantages and disadvantages

adv - low toxicity, excreted w/ small amt of water; energetically costly though

how is distal tubule regulated?

by hormones - mediates regulation of uptake of solutes and water

renal threshold

conc of a specific solute that will overwhelm reabsorptive cap

what do protonephridia have?

flame cells and solenocytes

what does the RAA pathway do?

helps regulate bp

is the GFR high/low in freshwater teleosts?

high w/ lots of nephrons and well developed glomeruli

disadvantages of ammonia excretion

highly toxic, requires lots of energy to store and excrete

how do regulate GFR extrinsically?

hormones - vasopressin, renin-angiotensin-aldosteron pathway & atrial natriuretic peptide

ANP is produced where?

in specialized cells w/i atria

how is glc reabsorbed?

secondary active transport, coupled w/ Na+

definitive urine

solution is modified as it move through kidney tubules before it is eliminated; ruled by epithelial cells lining renal tubule

where do the reabsorbed ions from the loop of henle go?

to the interstitial fluid caused by an osmotic gradient created in the medulla

do decapod crustaceans produce dilute/conc urine?

very dilute

what is the rate of reabsorption limited by?

#A of transporters

T/F type of nitrogen compound excreted is unrelated to animal's environment

F - of course it's related! Aquatic animals - ammonia; terrestrial - either urea of uric acid

T/F glomerular capillaries are not very leaky

F - they are aka fenestrated capillaries; formed by podocytes w/ foot processes

T/F sharks use uric acid to increase tissue osmolarity

F - they use urea- helps them prevent water loss in marine env and urea's perturbing effects are counteracted by TMAO; by relying on counteracting solutes, sharks can maintain the conc of inorganic ions (perturbing solutes) at low levels

T/F the descending limb is impermeable to water

F has increased aquaporins for water reabsorption and decreases the vol of the primary urine and also concentrates it

T/F vertebrates have both ADH and DH

F only ADH; some species of insects have DH (bloodsuckers)

in the ascending limb, what kind of transporters are used?

NKCC, K chs on apical side to move it back to lumen; Na/K Atpase on basolateral, Cl/K electroneutral cotrasnporter on basolat side; whole thing driven by Na/K atpase

T/F freshwater fish - ions are reabsorbed from primary urine and excrete very dilute urine

T

T/F most water and salt in primary urine reabsorbed using transport proteins and energy

T

T/F uric acid is actively secreted into urine (in reptiles & birds)

T

t/F the oncotic pressure gradient opposes movement inot the lumen

T

T/F the ascending limb is impermeable to water

T - only ions reabsorbed; primary urine becomes dilute

T/F aldosterone increases Na+ and water retention; does it raise bp? if so, how?

T - raises bp by increasing bv

T/F urea syntehsis is regulated by enzyme quantity and allosteric regulation

T; allosteric regulator N-acetyl glutamate; when aa levels are high, elevation in glutamate levels increases the activity of enzyme N-acetyl glutatmate synthetase

urea excretion adv and disadv

adv - only slightly toxic, relatively inexpensive to produce, but perturbing solute (high conc affect the cell via protein denaturation)

what is the aldosterone mechanism?

aldosterone diffuses into cell, binds to receptor (t-factor); activated tfactor stimulatestranscription of genes for transporters; new transporter proteins are made in the ER and exported in vesicles ; vescles containing proteins are sent to the plasma membrane

mesangial control

alter the permeability of glomerulus by increasing GFR

3 forms of nitrogenous waste

ammonia, uric acid, urea

what is angiootensinogen?

an inactive protein in plasma

primary urine

aqueous solution is introduced into kidney's tubules (filtrate)

why are sharks able to accumulate large amounts of urea?

b/c they have solutes that counteract the perturbing effects of urea (TMAO)

what do mesangial cells control?

bp and filtration w/i glomerulus - they widen/tighten the capillaries to affect flow rate

how is primary urine introduced into the kidney tubules?

by ultrafiltration - pressure driven mass flow

gulf toadfish

can convert to ureotelism when it moves to crowded conditions; urea stored in blood and is released once/twice daily in short pulses across gill following the insertion of urea transporters into gill epithelia; probably done to reduce the risk of local fouling of water; also, many animals use nh3 as a cue to detect prey, so urea production can be used to confuse predators;

what does renin do to angiotensinogen?

cleaves it to angiotensin I; then ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) on epithelia of bv's converst I to II

intercalated cells located ? What do they secrete?

collecting duct - secrete H+ or HCO3 depending on acid base balance of animal; convert H2o-> HCO3-; makes interstitial fluid and blood more alkaline, urine more acidic

where are principal cells located and what do they secrete and reabsorb?

collecting duct- secrete K+, reabsorb Na+; responsive to aldosterone

mineralocorticoids (aldosterone)

conserve Na+ to increase water reuptake

ADH

controls water excretion by increasing aquaporin concentration

how does the loop of henle act as a countercurrent multiplier?

creates an osmotic gradient that facilitates reabsorption of water; low osmolarity near cortex, high osmolarity deep in medulla

advantages of ammonia excretion

deamination of aa's & requires little energy to produce

what kind of dietary factors affect urine output?

diuretics - stimulate excretion of water and antidiuretics - reduce excretion of water

the single effect

even though the descending and ascending limbs have separate duties, the SINGLE effect is to remove water; in the desc limb, there is increasing osmolarity and aquaporins, so much water is able to be reabsorbed much more; there is a very high solute conc; ion pumps pull solutes to the int. fluid

filtration

filtrate of blood formed at glomerulus

four processes of urine production

filtration, reabsorption, secretion, excretion

what kind of urine production systems do decapon crustaceans use?

filtration-reabsorptoion - high energy cost

3 main forces of GFR

GFR

glomerular filtration rate - amt of filtrate produced/min

which hormones stimulate the OU cycle enzymes?

glucagon and glucocorticoids

what detects and controls thirst?

hypothalamus; osmoreceptors monitor conc of body fluids; increased levels of angiotensin II = body requesting aldosteron /therefore thirsty

when is ANP secreted?

in response to stretch associated w/ increase in bv

does ANP increase/decrease GFR? how does it do this?

increases - by relaxing contractile (mesangial cells) that control size fo filtration slits of glomerulus

Does ANP decrease/increase urine output?

increases, so lowers bv and bp; antagonistic to RAA pathway; increases Na excretion in urine

what is a malphigian tubule? What types of orgs use it?

insect equivalent to vertebrate kidney that empties to hindgut

which hormones inhibit the OU cycle enzymes?

insulin

in fish, where are mineralocorticoids produce? What type are they?

interrenal tissue in fish; cortisol

what are the roles of vertebrate kidneys in homeostasis?

ion balance, osmotic balance, bp, pH balance, excretion of metabolic wastes and toxins, hormone production

the initial filtrate filtered in bowman's capsule is hypo/hyper/isosmotic to blood?

isosmotic

what is the glomerulus composed of?

its a ball of capillaries surrounded by bowman's capsule

tubouloglomerular feedback

juxtaglomerular apparatus - macula densa cells in distal tubule contact specialized juxtaglomerular cells in walls of aff arteriole. When high flow in distal tubule, tubule cells signal aff arteriole, causing vasoconstrciton, a decrease in hdrostatic P causing vasoconstriction - decrease in hydrostatic p, decreasing GFR

how is renin secretion controlled?

juxtaglomerular cells secrete it; controlled by baroreceptors in juxtaglomerular cells release it in response to low bp; sympathetic neurons in cardiovascular control center of medulla oblongatat trigger renin secretion in response to low bp; macula densa cells in distal tubule respond to decreases in flow by releasing a paracrine signal that induces juxtaglomerular cells to release renin

Name some examples of animals that can change their mode of nitrogen excretion in response to water availability

lake magadi tilapia, gulf toadfish, african lungfish and some early developmental stages of several ammoniotelic species

lak magadi tilapia

live in water w/ pH so high that gill cannot excrete nh3, so must excrete as urea instead

loop of henle functions

making urine concentrated; descending limb - water removal ; ascending limb - "single effect" of solute pumping; only solutes leave, but it drives the removal of H2O in descending limb

myogenic regulation

used to intrinsically regulate GFR - constrict/dilation of afferent arteriole - widens/lowers space that's letting stuff out of capillary bed

what maintains the osmotic gradient by countercurrent exchanger?

vasa recta

vasoconstrictor (raises bp by increasing resistance) causes syntehsis and release of aldosterone from adrenal cortex; it is a steroid hormone that targets cells in distal tubule & CD; stimulates Na+ and water reabsorption from urine, enhances K excretion

mechanism of vasopressin action

vasopressin binds to G-protein-linked receptor, which activates adenylate cyclase, increasing cAMP, activating PKA; phosphorylation of cytoskeletal and vesicle proteins occurs, triggering translocation of vesicle to the cell membrane, w/ insertion of aquaporins

which is faster, aldosterone or vasopressin?

vasopressin, (peptide hormone); aldosterone - more permanent

when the liquid components are filtered into bowman's capsule, what is filtered and what isnt"

water and small solutes cross the glomerular wall and blood cells and large macromolecules unfiltered

what are some environmental and ecological constraints that determine animal excretory strategy?
