Given below are statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R. Assertion A: Nephrons are of two types: Cortical & Juxta medullary, based on their relative position in cortex and
medulla. Reason R: Juxta medullary nephrons have short loop of Henle whereas, cortical nephrons have longer loop of Henle.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Which of the following statements are correct?
A.An excessive loss of body fluid from the body switches off osmoreceptors.
B.ADH facilitates water reabsorption to prevent diuresis.
C.ANF causes vasodilation.
D.ADH causes increase in blood pressure.
E.ADH is responsible for decrease in GFR.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
The increase in osmolarity from outer to inner medullary interstitium is maintained due to:
I. Close proximity between Henle's loop and vasa recta
II. Counter current mechanism
III. Selective secretion of HCO3- and hydrogen ions in PCT
IV. Higher blood pressure in glomerular capillaries
