Question

Match the parts of the Nephron.

• A. 1-Thin descending limb 2-Thin ascending limb 3-Thick ascending limb 4-Distal convoluted tubule
• B. 1-Thick ascending limb 2-Thin ascending limb 3-Distal convoluted tubule 4-Thin descending limb
• C. 1-Thick ascending limb 2-Thin descending limb 3-Thin ascending limb 4-Distal convoluted tubule
• D. 1-Distal convoluted tubule 2-Thin ascending limb 3-Thick ascending limb 4-Thin descending limb

Answer 1

The correct option is A

1-Thin descending limb 2-Thin ascending limb 3-Thick ascending limb 4-Distal convoluted tubule

The Loop of Henle has four parts. These are the thick descending limb (not labeled), the thin descending limb shown here in (1), the thin ascending limb (2), and finally the thick ascending limb which is (3). The thick ascending limb joins with the next part of the nephron called the distal convoluted tubule (4).
