a, e, b, d, c

Aldosterone acts on the __________.

distal convoluted tubule

The portion of the nephron that empties into the collecting duct is the

distal convoluted tubule

The openings between the endothelial cells of the glomerular capillaries are called

fenestrae

An obstruction in the afferent arteriole would reduce the flow of blood into the

glomerulus

The renal corpuscle consist of

Normal urine has a specific gravity that is ________ than the specific gravity of pure water; dehydration leads to a __________ in the specific gravity of urine.

higher; increase

If someone is bleeding severely, the body's adaptive response is to

protein

Most water is reabsorbed from the filtrate in the

proximal convoluted tubule

Most tubular reabsorption occurs in the

proximal convoluted tubule, where cells have many microvilli.
