Which statement about the gradient in the medulla is correct?
The osmolarity falls from about 1200 mOsmol/L in the cortex to about 300 mOsmol/L in the inner medulla.
The osmolarity rises from about 300 to about 1200 mOsmol/L, mainly because of glucose and amino acids.
The osmolarity is the same everywhere in the kidney, about 300 mOsmol/L.
The osmolarity rises from about 300 mOsmol/L in the cortex to about 1200 mOsmol/L in the inner medulla, mainly because of NaCl and urea.
