Excretory System
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Each kidney is enclosed in a mass of? | Fatty tissue called Adipose Capsule |
| Outer section of the kidney | Cortex |
| Inner section of the kidney | Medulla |
| Microscopic filtering unit of the kidney | Nephron |
| Cluster of capillaries that begin the filtration of blood in the kidney? | Glomerulus |
| What is filter out of the blood in the Glomerulus? | Mineral Salts, Metabolic products, sugars and water |
| What is not filtered out of the blood in the glomerulus? | Protein and RBC's |
| What is the Bowman's Capsule? | C-Shaped structure that surrounds the glomerulus |
| What is the purpose of the Bowman's Capsule? | Picks up the materials filtered from the blood in the glomerulus |
| Where are substances reabsorbed that the body needs? | The convoluted tubules |
| How many ureters do you have? | 2 |
| How many urethras do you have? | 1 |
| formed from salts in the urine | Renal calculus |
| What is another name for renal calculus | kidney stones |
| Inflammation of the renal pelvis/kidney | Pyelonephritis |
| Inflammation of the bladder | cystitis |
| Inflammation of the glomerulus | Glomerulonephritis |
| These are s/s of what excretory condition: Chills, fever, hematuria, frequent urination, bladder spasms, fever, dysuria, ? | Cystitis |
| These are s/s of what kidney disease: chills, fever, fatigue, edema, oliguria, hematuria and protein in the urine? | Glomerulonephritis |
| Why should you limit salt intake with Acute, Chronic Glomerulonephritis, and Renal failure | Your kidneys are unable to filter fluids well, salt intake can created fluid retention making it even harder to filter urine |
| What kidney condition needs to be treated with Dialysis? | Acute and chronic renal failure, and chronic glomerulonephritis |
| Excessive amount of urine | Polyuria |
| Scant amount of urine | oliguria |
| No urine | anuria |
| blood in urine | hematuria |
| pus in urine | pyuria |
| Urinating at night | nocturia |
| Inability to empty bladder | retention |
| painful urination | dysuria |
| involuntary urination | incontinence |
| Tube that carries urine urine from the bladder to the outside | urethra |
| receives urine from the ureters | bladder |
| External opening of the urethra | Urinary meatus |
| Has lining of mucus membranes called Rugae | Bladder |
| Disappear as the bladder fills | Mucus membrane called Rugae |
| Passes materials into the convoluted tubules | Bowmans capsule |
| Notched or indented area of each kidney | Hilum |
| A rhythmic wavelike motion, moves urine through the ureter | Peristalsis |
| Bladder has 250mls of urine | Urge to void(urinate) |
| Type of dialysis that filters the blood | Hemodialysis |
| Type of dialysis that filters the peritoneal cavity of the body | Peritoneal dialysis |
| These are s/s of what type of kidney condition: chills, fever, back pain, dysuria, hematuria, and pyuria? | Pyelonephritis |
| What excretory conditions are treated with antibiotics, increase fluids and possibly antipyretics? | Cystitis, Pyelonephritis and urethritis |
| What excretory conditions are treated with antibiotics, fluid maintenance and possibly antipyretics? | Acute Glomerulonephritis |
