In osmotic diuresis there is_______________?
Correct answer: D. Decrease in reabsorption of Na Cl
- A. Increase in renal blood flow
- B. Increase in glomerular filtration rate
- C. Increase in NaCl concentration in urine
- D. Decrease in reabsorption of Na Cl
Explanation
In osmotic diuresis, a poorly reabsorbed solute retains water in the tubular fluid and reduces reabsorption of water and accompanying NaCl. The resulting increase in urine flow is not primarily due to an increase in GFR or renal blood flow.
