A&P2 Test 5 #8 Urinary-Auto Reg. & Extrinsic Controls

        Help!  

Question
Answer
RENAL AUTOREGULATION is accomplished by the:   JGA & neg.feedback mechanisms, which are triggered when the filteration rate is decreasine  
🗑
Renal Autoregulation kicks in:   when glomerular pressure falls.  
🗑
When Renal autoregulation kicks in:   the afferent arteriole & glomerular capillaries dilate & the efferent arteriole constricts  
🗑
The MD signals the smooth:   muscles in the afferent arteriole wall to relax  
🗑
The vessels will then dilate causing:   more blood to flow into the glomerulus  
🗑
The pressure then increases,   thereby increasing the rate of filtration  
🗑
The JGA releases:   renin  
🗑
renin causes   angiotensin to form angiotensin 1  
🗑
angiotensin 1 is rapidly changed:   into angiotensin II by ACE  
🗑
ACE is in the:   plasma and lungs  
🗑
Angiotensin II is a powerful   vaso constrictor & stimulates the smooth muscle of efferent arteriole walls to contractto  
🗑
The efferent arteriole walls contracting cause:   blood to back up into the glomerulus & increase glomerular pressureu  
🗑
Hence the glomerular:   filteration rate is increased  
🗑
Renin also stimulates the adrenal cortex to prod:   aldosterone  
🗑
aldosterone enhances renal   reabsorption of Na+ & encourages the postier pituitary to release ADH  
🗑
ADH increases   water retention  
🗑
Increasing water retention means that:   ADH helps increase blood volumn & BP  
🗑
Aldosterone, angiotensin II & ADH all:   work to increase BP & volumn  
🗑
ANP provides homeostatic   regulation of this sys by lowering BP  
🗑
ANP causes dilation of the:   afferent arteriole & constriction of the efferent arteriole  
🗑
thereby increasing the GFR &:   increasing urine production  
🗑
Extrinsic Controls are from   the sympathetic NS as well as baroreceptors  
🗑
BARORECEPTORS are located in:   BV walls of systemic circluation  
🗑
Sympathetic activation results in:   vaso-constriction of the afferent arterioles  
🗑
Micturation occurs when apx:   200 ml of urine accumulates in bladder  
🗑
MICTURITION FEFLEX CENTERS:   are located in thesacral region of spinal cord  
🗑
Urine is 95%   water  
🗑
When micturition reflex centers recieve impulses;   parasympathetic fibers cause the detrusor muscles to contract & the sphincters to relax  
🗑
As urine works its way into:   urethra, afferent impulses are sent to brain stem & cerebral cortex:need to void urine!  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
