1. | Urea | 2. | Uric acid |
3. | Ammonia | 4. | Creatinine |
Assertion (A): | Urea is the primary nitrogenous waste in humans. |
Reason (R): | It is less toxic and more soluble in water compared to ammonia. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A) |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
1. | It uses active transport to remove waste products from the blood. |
2. | It uses a selectively permeable membrane to remove waste products from the blood by diffusion. |
3. | It directly removes waste from the kidneys. |
4. | It recycles red blood cells and plasma. |
Assertion (A): | Being uricotelic is more advantageous than being ammonotelic. |
Reason (R): | Uric acid is less toxic and requires less water for excretion compared to ammonia. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
1. | ANF increases blood pressure and blood volume. |
2. | ANF causes vasodilation leading to decrease in blood pressure. |
3. | ANF increases the reabsorption of sodium in the distal convoluted tubule. |
4. | ANF promotes the secretion of renin from the kidneys. |
1. | Cortical nephrons are primarily involved in the filtration of blood. |
2. | Juxtamedullary nephrons have a longer loop of Henle that extends deep into the medulla. |
3. | Cortical nephrons are absent in mammals. |
4. | Juxtamedullary nephrons are not involved in the concentration of urine. |

Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): | Juxtamedullary nephrons are crucial for the process of urine concentration. |
Reason (R): | They have longer loops of Henle, which extend deep into the medulla, allowing more effective water reabsorption. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
Assertion (A): | Ammonia is considered to be a less toxic excretory product compared to urea and uric acid. |
Reason (R): | Ammonia requires a large amount of water for its elimination due to its high solubility and toxic nature. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) does not correctly explain (A). |
3. | (A) is True, (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False, (R) is True. |
