Unbound receptors are internalized at a relatively slow rate, on average once every 30 minutes, and are recycled rapidly to the plasma membrane so there is little reduction in the total number of surface receptors.

Countercurrent exchange is a passive process; it depends

on movement of water and could not maintain the osmotic gradient along the pyramids if the process of counter-current multiplication in the loops of Henle were to cease.
