Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of damage to the filtration membrane on relative permeability of the membrane and on the substances that are filtered.

Concept introduction:

Filtration membrane allows movement of all plasma components through it but not filter blood cells, small protein molecules and it filters out large molecules of proteins, engulfs and degrades macromolecules which are caught in the membrane.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Certain diseases, kidney trauma, heavy metals, and some bacterial toxins can damage the filtration membrane. What effect would this have on relative permeability of the membrane and the substances that are filtered?
Discuss the causes of the increase in fluid level in "vessel A," which is isolated from "vessel B" by a semi-permeable barrier.
Blood volume must be restored in a person who has lost large amounts of blood due to serious injury. This is often accomplished by infusing isotonic NaCl solution into the blood. Why is this more effective than infusing an isoosmotic solution of a penetrating solute, such as urea?
