| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The Left Kidney sits more inferior in the abdomen b/c of the spleen. T or False | False: Right Kidney b/c of Liver |
| The ureters sit _________ in regards to the common iliac arteries? | Anterior |
| True or False: The kidneys are located retroperitoneal on the posterior wall of the abdominal wall and Murphy's Sign is a test for Nephrolithiasis? | False: Murph's Punch Test (Murphy's sign is used for gallstones) |
| What is the outermost layer surrounding the kidney b/t the renal fascia and peritoneum? | Paranephric Fat // Renal fascia // Perinephric Fat // Fibrous Capsule |
| The typical kidney contains how many renal pyramids(medullary pyramids)? | 8-15 |
| What is the correct arterial pathway to and through the kidney ending with the interlobular vein? | Renal A > Segmental A > InterlobAR A > Arcuate A > InterlobULar A > Afferent Arteriole > Glomerulus > Efferent A > Peritubular capillaries and Vasa Recta(make me think rectum lower=nephron loop) > Interlobular V. |
| The name of the structure where the afferent arteriole enters and plasma is filtered is called? | Bowman's Capsule // Glomerulus // Kidney duct // none of the above |
| The capillary supply to the kidney the efferent arterioles branch into one of two capillary networks, which one resides in the medulla and is associated with the nephron loop? | Vasa Recta // other one is Peritubular Capillaries - Cortex & convoluted tubules |
| How many nephrons are in each kidney? | Millions // Thousands // Hundreds // Hundred-Thousands |
| True or False: About 15% of all nephrons are cortical nephrons and the other 85% lie near the corticomedullary junction known as Juxtamedullary nephrons? | False: Cortical Nephrons =85% of all nephrons only small portion entrs kidney medulla // Juxtamedullary Nephrons = bowmans capsule near corticomedullary juction with long nephron loop deep into medulla |
| Where is the distal convoluted tubule located in the kidney? | Cortex // Medulla // ureter // Renal Papilla |
| The renal corpuscle has two poles, what is the name of the pole that the afferent and efferent arterioles go in and out? | Vascular Pole // Tubular pole is the other side |
| The glomerular capsule is comprised of two layers, the visceral layer is comprised of a specialized cells, what is there name? | Podocytes = have long processes called PEDICELS that wrap around aterioles but do not completely ensheathe it. |
| All the tubules in the kidney are lined with simple cuboidal epithelium except which one? | Thin limbs of Nephron Loop (simple squamous epithelium) |
| Where is plasma proteins, vitamins and glucose reabsorbed with in the Nephron structure? | Proximal Convoluted tubules |
| What is important in the regulation of blood pressure with in the Nephron? | Juxtaglomerular Apparatus (Juxtaglomerular cells and Macula Densa) |
| What SENSORY and AUTONOMIC fibers innervate the kidney and what dermatome is involved? | Renal Plexus // dermatome T10 - T12 |
| The ureter is composed of three layers Mucosa, Muscularis, and Adventitia; where does it enter the urinary bladder? | Posterolateral wall of the urinary bladder |
| The cross section of the ureter looks like what? | A star fish |
| Where does the Urinary bladder lie in respects to the uterus and vagina? | AnteroInferior to Uterus // Directly anterior to the vagina |
| What is defined by the two ureteral openings and the urethral opening at the posteroinferior triangular area of the urinary bladder? | Trigone (the tri (3-things) that need to be GONE) |
