Name two structural adaptations of the nephron that aids in the function of ultrafiltration.
1. Wide afferent arteriole reducing in diameter increase pressure to aid in expulsion of the filtrate
2. Fenestrated capillaries are gaps between cells of the capillary that allow blood fluid to become glomerular filtrate.
3. Basement membrane glycoprotein extracellular matrix provides a mesh-like sieve preventing large proteins from exiting the blood plasma
4. Podocytes are specialized cells in the kidney that help maintain the glomerular filtration barrier and prevent protein from entering the urine

Using your knowledge of water potential and the details in the image below, provide one possible water potential for "A" and one possible water potential for "B" in the image below that will allow the water to move from xylem to phloem and back via osmosis. There is more than one possible correct response.
What are...
A: Any value equal to or below -0.9 mPA. Water will move via osmosis from high water potential to low water potential.
B: Any value equal to or above -0.5 mPA. Water will move via osmosis from high water potential to low water potential.
