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  
🗑
   
🗑
