The descending limb of the loop of Henle is permeable to water; the ascending limb is permeable to water.

The ascending limb of the Henle loop, one of the structures in the kidney's nephron, continues directly from the descending limb. The ascending limb has a section that is both thin and thick. Urine is drained from the ascending limb into the distal convoluted tubule.

The thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle plays crucial roles in the regulation of extracellular fluid volume, the urinary concentrating mechanism, calcium and magnesium homeostasis, bicarbonate and ammonium homeostasis, and the protein content of the urine. the limb of the loop of Henle also occupies a central anatomical and functional position in human renal physiology.

Increased atmospheric carbon dioxide negatively affects coral reefs by: select one:
Ksenya-84 [330]
Increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will diffuse to the ocean water (since normally, there is lower concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide in the ocean water). The dissolved carbon dioxide takes into the form of carbonic acid thereby increasing acidity of ocean water. More often than not, the acidification of ocean water leads to detrimental results especially in marine organisms that are pH sensitive such as coral reefs and many invertebrates.
