High sodium intake increases urinary calcium excretion, but this is not a problem with normal levels of calcium intake. True False Chloride is absorbed into the enterocyte primarily through a chloride/potassium ATPase pump. True False Chloride requires a special mechanism for secretion back into the gastrointestinal tract. True False Regarding pH balance, sodium, potassium, and chloride predominantly play a role as acids and bases as they transport CO2 out of the lung. True False

Kidneys: Please mark the statement as True or False. Regulated changes in the epithelium of the loop of Henle allow the kidney to operate in water-conservation mode. T or F? Reabsorption of water and solutes in the proximal tubule reduces the volume of the filtrate. T or F? The collecting duct concentrates urine by actively reabsorbing NaCl. T or F? The collecting duct becomes more permeable to water when the kidneys are in water-conservation mode. T or F?
