Question 1 of 5

An apical brush border is associated with which of the following

Correct Answer: D

Each consequence reflects lost kidney functions: EPO production, acid-base balance, and filtration. Ignoring any (RBC, pH, waste) underestimates failure's impact, making 'all' correct. This comprehensively links failure to systemic effects, key for clinical understanding, contrasting with partial outcomes.
