Question 1 of 5
Eating large amounts of meat will increase the levels of in the blood.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Meat (protein) raises blood urea from amino acid breakdown, not protein (intact), creatinine (muscle), or uric acid (purine). This identifies nitrogenous waste, vital for metabolism, contrasting with other markers.
Question 2 of 5
renal cortex is :
Correct Answer: A

Question 4 of 5
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: GFR is typically 125 mL/min, not 120, 130, or all. This standardizes filtration rate, vital for renal function, contrasting with approximations.
Question 5 of 5
An organ or structure that is not a component of the urinary system is the:
