Urinary system
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Urinary system regulates what 2 things | Body fluid & electrolytes |
| Urinary systems removes | Waste from blood |
| Stimulates what | Red blood cell production by releasing erythropoietin |
| Urinary systems includes what organs | Kidneys, ureters and bladder |
| The kids sit between what vertebrae | T12 and L4 |
| Retroperitoneal is located | Behind peritoneal membrane |
| Retroperitoneal is surrounded by | Fat |
| What 3 general areas are covered by the renal capsule | Cortex, medulla, hilum/pelvis |
| The cortex is the .... section of the renal capsule and contains | Outer and contains glomeruli |
| What kidney structure contains the renal pyramids | Medulla |
| The renal pelvis/hilum exits ..... and forms the ..... | Kidneys and forms the ureter |
| ... span big the cortex and the pyramids in the medulla | Nephrons |
| Nepheons generate filtrate in the | Renal corpuscle |
| Filtrate that is generated in the renal capsule is collected and reabsorbed in a | Series of renal tubules |
| Renal tubules connect to | Collecting ducts |
| Collecting ducts are in the | Renal pyramids |
| ...... connect to collecting ducts in the renal pyramids | Renal tubules |
| How many liters of filtrate are made within the kidneys | 180 liters |
| How liters of urine do we excrete | 2 liters |
| What happened to fluid filtrate and not excreted in urine | Reabsorb it |
| Within the renal corpus clear is a bundle formed from a | Capillary |
| Within the renal corustle a capillary bundle is called | Glomerulus |
| The distal convouted tubules connects to | The collecting ducts |
| The renal corpus clear connects to a series of tunes starting with | Proximal convoluted tubules PCT |
| The PCT connect to | Nephrons loop |
| The final portion of the nephrons structure is | Distal convoluted tubule |
| Glomerulus is a bundle of | LEAKY vasculature |
| The glomerulus allows .... to leak from ..... | Fluid, capillary |
| The capsule around the ...... capillary collects | Glomerulus , filtrate |
| Within the renal corpuscle, .... pressure pushes out fluid from the ..... | Hydrostatic, glomerulus |
| ..... pressure and capsular hydrostatic pressure push fluid back into the glomerulus | Osmotic |
| Pressure is push back into the glomerulus by | Osmotic pressure and capsular hydrostatic pressure |
| More or less fluid goes back in glomerulus | Less |
| Pressure net some or more fluid out of glomerulus | Some |
| After filtration is produced is it passes through the ..... system, starting with .... .... .... | Tubule, proximal convoluted tubules |
| The proximal convoluted tubules leak | Glucose, amino acids, sodium and water |
| The water leaked from proximale convoluted tubules is from | Glomerular filtrate |
| The nephrons loop aka | Loop of henle |
| What is established within the nephrons loop | Ion gradient |
| The descending loop is or is not water permeable | Is |
| What part of the nephrons loop is ion permeable | Ascending loop |
| More wate leaves the ..... loop | Descending |
| When water leaves the descending nephrons loops the solution becomes | More hypertonic |
| What happens when the water solution becomes more hypertonic | It pulls more ions out of the ascending loop |
| Vasa Recta absorbs water from ... | Descending loop and collecting ducts |
| When the descending loop and collecting ducts absorb water it keeps ..... .... high and | Ion concentration high and pulling more water out from the descending loop |
| Distal convolute tubule regulates ..... production via. ..... | Urine, anti-diuretic hormone |
| AntI diuretic hormone makes the ..... ..... .... water permeable | Distal convoluted tubule |
| the capillaries of the Vasa Recta allow water to be | Reabsorbed |
| How does urine exit the tubule system | Into a collecting duct |
| Where do collecting ducts end | Renal papilla |
| What are the two types of nephrons | CorticAL and juxtamedullary |
| Which nephrons is longer | Juxtamedullary |
| Which nephrons are shorter | Cortical |
| Which nephrons controls the most urine concentration | Juxtamedullary nephrons |
| Which nephrons has the least control over urine concentration | CORTICAL |
| Renal papilla ends at | Minor calyx |
| Each papilla empties into | Minor calyx |
| Minor caleb join to form | Major calyx |
| What empties into the renal pelvis | Major calyces |
| Where does the renal pelvis exit the kidney | At the hilum, forming the ureter |
| Exiting each kidney at .... is a .... | HILUM, ureter |
| What tunes carry uri. into the bladder | Ureter |
| Females have a shorter or longer urethra | Shorter |
| In males the urethra is associated with multiple glands that contribute to | Seminal fluid.. semen |
