how do you think a decrease in blood pressure would affect filtration in the kidneys?
Q. Please help!! I am taking human anatomy and I don't get it! If you are really good at science, please tell me and keep it to simple answers please haha! Thanks!

A. There would be a decrease in the kidney's ability to filter. When your blood pressure gets low, your kidney can release chemicals to bring it back up. Good luck

Asked by Spencer Bradley - Thu Apr 1 10:47:27 2010 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. In an "ordinary" capillary bed, the forces at the arterial end favor filtration of fluid and the forces at the venous end favor reabsorption. In the glomerulus, blood flows from arteriole to arteriole. Under resting conditions there is a 60 mmHg outward hydrostatic pressure (PGC) in the glomerulus. This is much higher than that of a normal capillary bed. Two forces oppose this outward hydrostatic (filtration) pressure. The hydrostatic pressure in Bowman's capsule (or space, PBC or PBS), which opposes glomerular filtration, is approximately 15 mmHg. There is also an osmotic pressure ((PI)GC) caused by the plasma proteins in the glomerular capillaries that provides an inward pressure of 27 mmHg. So the net filtration pressure is: net… [cont.]

A. Glomerular filtration is enabled by a high pressure system. If blood pressure is too low, no glomerular filtration is possible. That's why when you are in shock (blood pressure too low) in medical terms, your kidney shuts down and no urine produced.

Q. This is part of capillary exchange (bulk flow: filtration and reabsorption) I know there is two ends the arterial end and venous end, however there is also a formula with many different variables that plays a role in the dynamics of capillary exchange. For example: Blood hydrostatic pressure, Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure, Blood colloid osmotic pressure, Interstitial fluid osmotic pressure, and finally Net filtration pressure?

A. You're talking about the Starling equation. It's a relationship between the pressures tending towards filtration on the arterial end (oncotic and hydrostatic) and the pressures tending towards resorption on the venous end (same pressures, different values) Here's the wiki, it explains it fairly well. (Edit--YA not allowing links at the moment, but you can go to wikipedia and type in "Starling Equation")

A. Oncotic pressure is the osmotic force exerted by substances in fluid. The oncotic pressure of the plasma is greater in the capillaries than in the interstitial fluid. This is primarily due to plasma proteins that do not leave the plasma. This would tend to push fluid from the capsule into the capillaries. But... The hydrostatic pressure in the capillary is very high and overcomes the oncotic pressure. This is because the renal artery which has high pressure passes through a short afferent arteriole into the glomerulus in addition to the fact that the efferent arteriole has a smaller diameter than the afferent arteriole.

A. This force derives from the difference between the osmotic pressure of the blood and tissue fluid. The blood of mammals contains a relatively high concentration of proteins (7 to 9 g/100 mL), and these large molecules cannot easily pass through the capillary walls. The same kinds of proteins also occur in the tissue fluids, but in much lower concentration (about 2 g/100 mL). Because of the different protein concentrations on the two sides of the capillary wall, the blood and tissue fluids have different osmotic pressures. Normally, the osmotic pressure of the blood is about 22 mm Hg higher than that of the tissue fluid.
