NEET UG Zoology — Excretory Products and their Elimination previous year questions with solutions.
Which of the following diagrams is correct with regard to the proximal $(P)$ and distal (D) tubule of the Nephron.
Diuresis is prevented by:
Given below are two statements: Statements I: Concentrated urine is formed due to counter current mechanism in nephron. Statement II: Counter current mechanism helps to maintain osmotic gradient in the medullary interstitium. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Choose the correct statement given below regarding juxta medullary nephron.
Given below are two statements : Statement I : In the nephron, the descending limb of loop of Henle is impermeable to water and permeable to electrolytes. Statement II : The proximal convoluted tubule is lined by simple columnar brush border epithelium and increases the surface area for reabsorption. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the option given below :

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 and 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:
Arrange the events of Renin - Angiotensin mechanism in correct sequence. (A) Activation of JG cells and release of renin. (B) Angiotensin II activates release of aldosterone. (C) Fall in glomerular blood pressure. (D) Reabsorption of $\mathrm{Na}^{+}$and water from distal convoluted tubule. (E) Angiotensinogen is converted to Angiotensin I and then to Angiotensin II. Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A) : Ascending limb of loop of Henle is impermeable to water and allows transport of electrolytes actively or passively. Reason (R) : Dilution of filtrate takes place due to efflux of electrolytes in the medullary fluid. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Select the correct statements. (a) Angiotensin II activates the cortex of adrenal gland to release aldosterone. (b) Aldosterone leads to increase in blood pressure. (c) ANF acts as a check on renin-angiotensin mechanism. (d) $\mathrm{ADH}$ causes vasodilation. (e) Vasopressin is released from adenohypophysis. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
Nitrogenous waste is excreted in the form of pellet or paste by:
Erythropoietin hormone which stimulates RBC formation is produced by:
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 ${\mathrm{HCO}}_{3}$$-$ and hydrogen ions in $\mathrm{PCT}$ (iv) Higher blood pressure in glomerular capillaries
Select the correct statement:
