TRUE OR FALSE 1 . Proteins and cells can easily be filtered out of glomerular filtration in glomerular capillaries. 2. Sympathetic nervous system increases the renal blood flow and decrease Glomerular filtration rate. 3. Filtration in the glomerulus is an active process driven by energy from ATP. 4. The kidneys produce erythropoietin, which stimulates red blood cell production in the bone marrow. 5. The kidneys can compensate for metabolic acidosis by excreting more bicarbonate ions.

11. Which of the following structures is primarily responsible for gas exchange in the lungs? A) Trachea B) Bronchi C) Alveoli D) Bronchioles 12. What is the primary function of surfactant in the lungs? A) To increase the surface tension of alveolar fluid B) To reduce the surface tension of alveolar fluid and prevent alveolar collapse C) To facilitate the movement of oxygen across the alveolar membrane D) To enhance carbon dioxide exchange in the alveoli
13. Which of the following factors primarily determines the efficiency of gas exchange in the lungs?
