  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The correct match is
    I. DCT - Secretion of $$Na^+$$ and $$K^+$$ ions
    II. Henle's loop - Reabsorption of glucose, water and $$Na^+$$ ions
    III. Podocytes - Attached to the parietal layer of Bowmans capsule
    IV. JGA - Rise in glomerular blood pressure activates it to release rennin.
    Solution
    The Distal convolutes tubule(DCT) is a portion of the kidney between the loop of Henle and the collecting tubule. It is present in the renal cortex. In DCT Secretion of Na+ and K+ ions takes place.
    So, the correct answer is 'DCT- Secretion of Na+ and K+ ions'.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Curved portion of the Henle's loop of the Neprons are lined by
    Solution
    A nephron is a thin walled and coiled duct with the blind proximal end. It is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney.  A loop of Henle is divided into three parts ascending loop of Henle, descending loop of Henle and the curved part of a loop of Henle. The curved portion of loop of Henle has the single layer of squamous epithelium which is impermeable to water. Thus the correct option is C.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Effective filtration pressure in glomerulus is caused due to
    Solution
    The arteriole that carries blood away from the glomerulus is the efferent arteriole whereas the afferent arteriole carries blood to the glomerulus. The afferent and efferent arteriole resistance exerts an opposite action. The efferent arteriole being smaller in diameter than the afferent arteriole produces a resistance to blood flow that creates a high pressure in the glomerulus leading to filtration. Thus the correct answer is option C.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    In the given diagram, water absorption does not occur in part labelled as 

    Solution
    • In the given image, W represents Glomerulus, X represents a descending loop of Henle, Y represents the ascending loop of Henle and Z represents distal convoluted tubule. 
    • Glomerulus does primary filtration function. It filters waste products and fluids from the blood. 
    • Ascending and descending loop of Henle's primary function is absorption water and sodium chloride to maintain the concentration gradient. 
    • Distal convoluted tubule is involved in the reabsorption of sodium and chloride along with water to maintain homeostasis.
    Thus, the correct answer is option A.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    If loop of Henle is absent from mammalian nephron which of the following is expected?
    Solution
    The loop of Henle is a U-shaped, long tubule consisting of a descending and an ascending limb. The descending limb is highly permeable to water and the ascending limb is impermeable to water but is permeable to ions. The main function of the loop of Henle is to concentrate the urine, regulating the amount of water to be given out. Hence, the urine will be more dilute if the loop of Henle is absent from mammalian nephron.
    So, the correct answer is option B.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Dahlia starch is used for
    Solution
    Dahlia starch is fructan, a food storage polysaccharides. Fructan is a polymer of fructose molecules found in roots of Dahlia. It is not metabolized by Body. So, it is used for testing the function of the kidney. It is also found in onion, garlic etc. Thus, the correct answer is B.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Tadpole of Frog is
    Solution
    Ammonotelic are the organisms which excrete nitrogenous wastes in the form of ammonia while ureotelic animals excrete nitrogenous wastes in the form of urea.since tadpole is an amphibian it is an ammonotelic animal. Tadpoles are aquatic animals. therefore there is no problem of water conservation for them.hence they can easily eliminate the excess ammonia from their body.
    Ammonia is more toxic than urea and needs lots of water to excrete from the body. 
    So the correct answer is 'Ammonotelic.'
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Proximal and distal convoluted tubules are consituents of.
    Solution
    The correct answer is option A (Nephron)
    Nephron is considered the structural and functional unit of kidney, each nephron has a Bowman's capsule , proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, Distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Kidney of adult rabbit is
    Solution
    The metanephric kidneys are a paired compact organ whose functional units are nephrons. The nephrons filter initial urine from the blood, reabsorbing water and nutrients, and secrete wastes, producing the final urine, which is expelled. The kidney of adult rabbit is metanephros type.
    So, the correct answer is 'Metanephros'.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Earthworms are
    Solution
    Correct Answer: D
    Explanation:
    • In earthworms, nephridia are present as excretory organs.
    • An earthworm is ureotelic in nature, releases urea as nitrogenous excretory waste during dry conditions(water scarcity).
    • But when moisture is more, then it becomes ammonotelic, releases ammonia as an excretory product.
    • Hence, the correct answer is Ammonotelic when plenty of water is available.
