Much like sanitation workers who keep a city's water supply drinkable and dispose of its waste, the kidneys are usually unappreciated until there is a malfunction and "internal garbage" piles up.
Nephron Physiology source source Key Points: Early Proximal Tubule: reabsorb all glucose, amino acids and most of bicarbonate, sodium, chloride, phosphate and water. Generates and secretes ammonia. Thin descending loop of Henle: passive reabsorbs water. Think Ascending Loop of Henle: actively reabsorbs Na+, K+ and Cl-. Responsible for paracellular reabsorption of Mg2+ and Ca2+. Impermeable to H2O. Early Distal Convoluted Tubule: actively reabsorb Na_ and Cl-. Collecting Tubule: reabsorb Na…
