Question:
In the picture attached, it shows after NaCl has been actively transported out of the thick ascending limb, the medulla becomes saltier. In response to this, the osmolarity in the descending limb equlibrates with the medullary interstitium at 400 mOsm. Then when new filtrate from the proximal convoluted tubule enters, the medullary interstitium suddenly changes to 300 mOsm. Why does the medullary interstitium suddenly change from 400 to 300 mOsm?
