This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Urinary 2, Renin which leads to production of Angiotensin II, Angiotensin II triggers the release of aldosterone, which leads to reabsorption of Sodium, Blood Pressure decrease causes the release of Renin, PCT is the main site for Reabsorption, Collecting Duct water permeability is increased by the hormone ADH, Secretion rids the body of excess Potassium, Chloride is cotransported with Sodium, ADH inserts an increasing number of Aquaporins, Collecting Duct is a site of reabsorption or secretion of Potassium, PCT passes filtrate into the Loop of Henle, Nephron is the functional unit of the kidney consisting of the Collecting Duct, DCT water permeability is increased by the hormone ADH, Nephron is the functional unit of the kidney consisting of the Glomerulus, Aquaporins allows passive transport of water, Nephron is the functional unit of the kidney consisting of the PCT, Collecting Duct lowers blood pH by Secretion, Glomerulus passes filtrate into the PCT, Active Transport at tubule cells aids in reabsorption of Sodium, Nephron is the functional unit of the kidney consisting of the Loop of Henle, Loop of Henle is continuosly water permeable due to Aquaporins
