This document summarizes the results of a student's simulation of a filtration experiment. The student scored 100% on the pre-lab quiz by correctly answering questions about filtration mechanisms. Increasing the pore size and pressure increased the filtration rate as predicted. Sodium, chloride, urea, and glucose were too large to pass through membranes with molecular weight cut-offs of 20 and 50 daltons. The student's post-quiz score was 75% with mistakes made in questions about solute recovery rates and effects of increased blood pressure on kidney filtration rates. The student did not provide answers for the review sheet questions.

Experiment Results Predict Question: Predict Question 1: What effect will increasing the pore size of the filter have on the filtration rate? Your answer : c. The filtration rate will increase. Predict Question 2: What will happen if you increase the pressure above the beaker (the driving pressure)? Your answer : c. The filtration rate will increase, and the concentration of the solutes in the filtrate will increase. Stop & Think Questions: The reason none of the solutes were present in the filtrate was that You correctly answered: b. the solutes were all too large to pass through. What does an increase in the driving pressure correspond to in the body? You correctly answered: d. an increase in blood pressure Experiment Data: Run Number 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 Solute Na+ ClUrea Glucose Powdered Charcoal Na+ ClUrea Glucose Powdered Charcoal Na+ ClUrea Glucose Powdered Charcoal Na+ ClUrea Glucose Powdered Charcoal MWCO 20 20 20 20 50 50 50 50 200 200 200 200 200 200 200 200 Pressure 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 50 100 100 100 100 Filter Rate 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 2.50 2.50 2.50 2.50 10.00 10.00 10.00 10.00 20.00 20.00 20.00 20.00 Residue present present present present present present present present present present present present present present present present Start Conc. 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 5.00 Filter Conc. 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.81 0.00 0.00 0.00 4.81 4.74 4.34 0.00 4.81 4.74 4.34 0.00

Post-lab Quiz Results You scored 75% by answering 3 out of 4 questions correctly. 1. After filtration, substances that pass through the filter are called the filtrate, which includes You correctly answered: d. all of the above. 2. The top beaker in the simulation corresponds to You correctly answered: a. the blood capillary. 3. Why was there not 100% recovery of the Na+ Cl- solute with any of the membranes? Your answer: a. The solute was too large to fit through the pores. Correct answer: c. Some of the solute remained on the membrane filter. 4. An increase in blood pressure would probably initially __________ filtration in the kidneys. You correctly answered: b. increase the rate of

Review Sheet Results 1. Explain in your own words why increasing the pore size increased the filtration rate. Use an analogy to support your statement. How well did the results compare with your prediction? You did not answer this question. 2. Which solute did not appear in the filtrate using any of the membranes? Explain why. You did not answer this question. 3. Why did increasing the pressure increase the filtration rate but not the concentration of solutes? How well did the results compare with your prediction? You did not answer this question.
