Describe the transport properties of the loop of Henle and explain the interactions between the ascending and descending limbs

The loop of henle is a part of the renal functional unit.

This handle has an ascending part and a descending part.

In the descending loop, the urine that is formed inside enters a hypotonia, since a large amount of water is absorbed and the concentrations of solutes in the urine decrease, thus generating a hypoosmolar solution, that is, with less molarity.

In the ascending loop of henle, the opposite arises, ionic channels appear that increase the concentration of solutes, this is how the urine that runs through the interior of the ascending loop of henle becomes hyperosmolar.

Hyperosmolarity is the increase in concentrations of solutes, and the increase in molarity of the solution, which in this case would be urine.

Explanation:

A very important fact is that urea is absorbed in the ascending henle loop.
