Bpk 105 module 12 terminology and review questions. Bpk 105 module 12 review questions: list the functions of the urinary systems. [7 marks: illustrate and describe the pressures that influence filtration pressure at the bowmans capsule. Glomerular capillary pressure: blood pressure within the glomerulus: moves fluid from the blood into the bowman capsule, 2. Capsular pressure: pressure inside the bowman capsule: moves fluid from capsule into the blood, 3. Colloid osmotic pressure: produced by concentration of blood proteins: moves fluid from the bowman capsule into the blood by osmosis, 4. Filtration pressure: equal to the glomerular capillary pressure minus the capsular and colloid osmotic pressures: describe the processes of reabsorption that occur as you move through the nephron. Include the main function, the % of filtrate volume and the main substances reabsorbed and in each area of the nephron. Angiostensin system to a decrease in blood volume. Use a block diagram to illustrate your answer.
