Which of the following statements are true of the arteriole and venule ends of a capillary bed? Fluid moves into the capillary bed at the arteriole end. Fluid moves into the capillary bed at the venule end. Osmotic pressure at the arteriole end and the venule end are equal. Osmotic pressure is higher at the venule end than it is at the arteriole end. Net filtration pressure is higher at the arterial end than it is at the venule end.

Which of the following is true regarding capillary exchange of fluids? All fluids that leave the capillary at the proximal end are reabsorbed at the distal end, so there is no net loss of fluids Filtration dominates at the proximal end of the capillary due to high colloid oncotic pressure Fluid is reabsorbed at the distal end of the capillary due to the attractive force of hydrostatic capillary pressure Fluid leaks out of the capillary at the proximal end, causing the hydrostatic pressure to drop as the blood moves toward the distal end.

Regarding renal physiology, which of the following statements is/are TRUE? a) In the nephron of humans, aquaporin channels are present in the ascending limb of the loop of Henle, but not in the descending limb of the loop of Henle. b) Vasoconstriction of the efferent arteriole (afferent arteriole remains unchanged) would increase the hydrostatic pressure in the glomerular capillaries. c) Fluid becomes progressively concentrated as it moves down the descending limb of the loop of Henle due to primary active transport mechanisms that directly move water across the wall of the descending limb. d) Both a) and b) are correct and c) is incorrect e) a), b) and c) are all correct
