The Nephron

Ultrafiltration Filtering at a molecular level Glomerulus Bowman’s Capsule

Ultrafiltration Filtration of the blood to move substances into the nephron Filtered based on size Any molecule with a relative molecular mass of more than 69,000 will not be filtered.

Collagen Sodium Immunoglobulin Water Haemoglobin Urea Glucose Glycine Task: Molecule Size List these atoms/molecules in order of size and decide which will / will not be filtered at the glomerulus: Collagen Sodium Immunoglobulin Water Haemoglobin Urea Glucose Glycine

Molecule Size and Filtration The following passes through from the blood to the nephron: Water Salts (Na,K,Cl) Glucose Urea Small Amino Acids

Selective Reabsorption Ultrafiltration is non selective (i.e. any molecule small enough is filtered) Some substances are needed in the body so must stay in the bloodstream These molecules are reabsorbed from the proximal convoluted tubule into the blood.

Secretion / Absorption Secretion: Substances moving from blood to nephron. Absorption: Substances moving from nephron to blood.

Which are needed in the blood? Fill in the table: Substances needed in the blood: Substances to be excreted in the urine:

Which are needed in the blood? Fill in the table: Substances needed in the blood: Substances to be excreted in the urine: Glucose Urea Amino Acids Water Salts

Summarise the processes happening in the nephron: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UVlXX-9x7Q

Dehydration: Definition?

Dehydration: List the symptoms of dehydration:

8 Common signs of dehydration https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuAoP0BpGGk Take notes, I’ll test you afterwards!!

Class Work Task: Complete your labelled Nephron diagram for your pass criteria. Use text books to research and make notes on: Osmoregulation Dehydration 3) Begin producing a booklet on Dehydration
