<u>Answer:</u>

The pathophysiology instructor will emphasize that the cells of the proximal tubule have a fine, villous structure that increases surface area, allowing for active transport processes to occur with fluids.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The proximal tubule is a part of the nephron and it controls the "pH of the filtrate" by exchanging "hydrogen ions for bicarbonates".
  • It also secretes organic acids like creatinine and bases to be mixed with the filtrate, so that it is neutralized.
  • Thus it helps in  the transportation of the filtrate and is also responsible for absorption and re-absorption of the fluids.

An action potential releases neurotransmitter from a neuron by opening which channels?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Calcium channels.

Explanation:

The  arrival of action potential at the presynaptic neuron, cause the opening of Ca+ channels, at the presynpatic neuron membranes. This leads to influx of Ca+ . The latter caused  the Acetycholine contained vesicles in the presynaptic  neuron to migrate to the tip of the presynaptic neurons, and  fused with the neuronal membrane to  empty their contents into the synaptic cleft.

Choose the FALSE statement about nerves. a) Nerve axons are surrounded by a loose connective tissue layer called the endoneurium
Zinaida [17]

Answer: The answer is C: Axons make up a majority of the matter in a nerve.

Explanation:

Nerves are cells of the brain and nervous system called Neurons. They make up the neurons and transmit messages from one part of the body to another.

Axons are long projections of a neuron which conduct electrical impulses known as action potential away from the nerve cell body.

Axons do not make up majority of the matter in a nerve because the length of axon branches are different from one neuron to another. They differ in length from about 0.1 micrometers to 2meters and many neurons do not have axons.
