1. Fluids move through the kidney tubule in the following order: Bowman's capsule, distal tubule, loop of Henle, proximal tubule, collecting duct. True or False? 2. The rumen, cecum, and appendix each house symbiotic bacterial populations that aid in the digestion of lipid. T or F? 3. Leptin is a hormone that increases appetite. When animals have low leptin synthesis, low levels of leptin receptors, or insensitive leptin receptors, this signaling pathway is impaired and animals lose their appetite. T or F? 4. When the pancreas makes digestive enzymes for release into the gut, this is considered exocrine secretion. T or F? 5. The lumen of the small intestine is made acidic by the actions of a proton pump in parietal cells. T or F?

Select true or false for each of the following options regarding the descending limb of the loop of Henle. A) Utilizes both facilitated diffusion and active transport to remove solutes from filtrate. B) NaCl pumps allow filtrate to be 300 mOsm less than surrounding interstitial fluid. C) Includes aquaporins that allow water to leave and concentrate filtrate. D) Allows diffusion of urea that contributes to the osmotic concentration gradient of interstitial fluid. 2. TRUE or FALSE: The distal tubule is where the maximal osmolarity of the filtrate within the collecting duct of the nephron is set.
