उत्तर

(i)

1 – Collecting duct
2 – Distal convoluted tubule (DCT)
3 – Descending limb of loop of Henle
4 – Bowman’s capsule

(ii) The diameter of efferent arteriole is narrower than the diameter of the afferent arteriole which builds the high hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus.

(iii) Efferent arteriole

(iv) The two main stages of urine formation are ultrafiltration and tubular reabsorption.

(v) Henle’s loop and collecting tubules

  2. What is the liquid entering part ‘1’ called?
    Name two substances present in this liquid that are reabsorbed in the tubule
  3. What is the fluid that comes to part ‘2’ called? Name the main nitrogenous waste in it.
  4. Mention the three main steps involved in the formation of the fluid mentioned in (c) above.

Where is the dirty blood in our body filtered?


The organs A of a person have been damaged completely due to which too much of a poisonous waste material B has started accumulating in his blood, making it dirty. In order to save this person’s life, the blood from an artery in the person’s arm is made to flow into long tubes made of substance E which are kept in coiled form in a tank containing solution F. This solution contains three materials G, H and I in similar proportions to those in normal blood. As the person’s blood passes through long tubes of substance E, most of the wastes present in it go into solution. The clean blood is then put back into a vein in the arm of the person for circulation.

  1. What are organs A?
  2. Name the waste substance B.
  3. What are (i) E, and (ii) F?
  4. Name G, H and I.
  5. What is the process described above known as?

Fill in the blank :

Nitrogenous wastes in the urine are in the form of urea and ..................... 


 Correct and rewrite the statements by changing the biological term that is underlined for the statement: 
The kidney is composed of number of neurons.
