Which of the following is incorrect? The kidneys produce a small volume of concentrated urine when dehydrated; Urine concentration and volume are determined by countercurrent mechanisms The concentration of urine is lower when urine volume is reduced; The kidneys produce a large volume of dilute urine when overhydrated
Which is true of the loop of Henle? A. no energy is used in a functioning loop of Henle B. osmolality of fluid inside the loop increases as it descends the loop C. fluid in the loop of Henle is referred to as urine D. fluid in the loop of Henle contains proteins such as hemoglobin, derived from dead red blood cells E. the loop of Henle consists of the proximal convoluted tubule and a collecting duct and
