THE URINARY SYSTEM
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| EXCRETION | REMOVAL AND ELIMINATION OF METABOLIC WASTE |
| URINARY | REMOVAL WAST FROM BLOOD |
| OTHER FUNCTIONS | REGULATES BLOOD VOLUME,pH, AND ELECTROLYTES |
| DIGESTIVE SYSTEM | ELIMINATES WATER,SALTS,BILE WITH DIGESTIVE RESIDUE |
| RESPIRATORY SYSTEM | ELIMINATES CARBON DIOXIDE, WATER |
| INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM | THE SKIN, EXCRETS WATER, SALTS, AND VERY SMALL QUATITIES OF NITROGENOUS WASTES |
| KIDNEYS | A PAIR OF ORGANS EXTRACT WASTES FROM THE BLOOD, BALANCE BODY FLUIDS,AND FORM URINE. |
| URETERS | A PAIR OF TUBES CONDUCT URINE FROM THE KIDNEYS TO THE URINARY BLADDER. |
| URINARY BLADDER | A SINGLE, RSERVOIR RECEIVES AND STORES THE URINE BROUGHT TO IT BY THE TWO URETERS. |
| URETHRA | A SINGLE, TUBE CONDUCT URINE FROM THE BLODDER TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE BODY FOR ELIMINATION |
| WHAT IS THE ACTIVITIES FOR THE KIDNEY? | EXCRETION OF UNWANTED SUBSTANCES,SUCH AS CELLULAR METABOLIC WASTE, EXCESS SALTS, AND TOXINS. WATER BALANCE, ACID-BASE BALANCE OF BODY, BLOOD PRESSURE REGULATION, REGULATION OF RED BLOOD CELL PRODUCTION. |
| WHAT IS ERYTHROPOIETIN(EPO)? | STIMULATES RED CELL PRODUCTION IN THE BONE MARROW |
| RENAL CAPSULE | IT FIRMLY ENCLOSED IN A MEMBRANOUS, MADE OF FIBROUS CONNECTIVE TISSUE |
| ADIPOSE CAPSULE | AROUND THE ORGAN, IT IS OUTERMOST LAYE OF FASCIA (CONNECTIVE TISSUE)ANCHORS THE KIDNEY TO THE PERITONEUM AND ABDOMINAL WALL. |
| RETOPERITONEAL SPACE | POSTERIOR TO THE PERITONEUM |
| KIDNEY STRUCTURE | IN UPPER ABDOMEN AGAINST THE BACK |
| WHAT SUPPLY THE BLOOD? | RENAL ARTERY,RENAL VEIN,NEPHRONS |
| RENAL ARTERY | CARRIES BLOOD TO KIDNEY FROM AORTA |
| RENAL VEIN | CARRIES BLOOD FROM KIDNEY TO INFERIOR VENA CAVA |
| NEPHRONS | FUNCTIONAL UNITS, THE BLOOD LEAVES THE KIDNEY BY VESSELS THAT FINALLY MERGE TO FORM THE REAL VEIN.IT IS THE BASIC UNIT WHICH ACTUALLY DOES THE KIDNEY'S WORK. IS THE TINY COILED TUBE WITH A BULB AT ONE END. |
| HILUM | The area through which ducts, nerves, or blood vessels enter and leave a gland or organ. |
| RENAL CORTEX | the tissue forming the outer layer of an organ or structure in the body |
| RENAL MEDULLA | THE INNER PORTION, THE CONTAINS TUBES IN WHICH URINE IS FORMED AND COLLECTED |
| RENAL PYRAMIDS | TUBES FORM A NUMBER OF CONE-SHAPED STRUCTURES |
| REAL PLVIS | A FUNNEL-SHAPED BASIN THAT FORMS THE UPPER END OF THE URETER. |
| CALYCES | CUPLIKE EXENSIONS THAT RECEIVE URINE |
| CALYX | COLLECTS THE URINE IN THE PLVIS THE PASSES DOWN THE URETER TO THE BLOODER |
| GLOMERULAR CAPSULE | SURROUNDS A CLUSTER OF CAPILLARIES CALLED THE GLOMERULUS.(BOWMAN) |
| DO EACH KIDNEY CONTAINS ABOUT 1 MILLION NWPHEONA? | TURE, IF ALL THESE COILED TUBES WERE SEPARATED STRAIGHTENED OUT, AND LAID END TO END THEY WOULD SPAN SOME 120 KILOMATER (75 MILES) |
| AFFERENT ARTERIOLE | SUPPLIES THE GLOMERULUS WITH BLOOD IT IS A SMALL BLOOD VESSEL |
| EFFERENT ARTERIOLE | IT IS ANOTHER SMALL VESSEL. CARRIES BLOOD FROM THE GLOMERULUS |
| PERITUBULAS CAPILLARIES | IT FLOWS INTO A CAPILLARY NETWORK THAT SURROUNDS THE NEPHRON'S TUBULAR PORTION. |
| PROXIMAL CONVOLUTED TUBULE (PCT) | THESE ARE COILED PART LEADING FROM THE GLOMERULAR CAPSULE |
| NEPHRON LOOP | THESE TUBULE THEN UNCOILS TO FORM A HEAIRPIN-SHAPED SAGMENT. THESE LOOP OF HENLE |
| DESCENDING LIMB | THE FIRST PART OF THE LOOP WHICH CARRIES FLUID TOWARD THE MEDULLA |
| ASCENDING LIMB | THESE ARE PART THAT CONTINUES FROM THE LOOP'S TURN AND CARRIES FLUID AWAY FROM THE MEDULLA |
| DISTAL CONVOLUTED TUBULE (DCT) | is a portion of kidney nephron between the loop of Henle and the collecting duct system |
| WHAT IS THE FROMATION OF URINE ? | GLOMERULAR FILTRATION, TUBULAR REABSORPTION, TUBULAR SECRETION,CONCETRATION OF THE URINE,REGULATION OF BLOOD PRESSURE. |
| GLOMERULAR FILTATION | DRIVEN BY BLOOD PRESSURE IN GLOMERULUS IT IS THE WATER AND SOLUBLE SUBSTANCES FORCED OUT OF BLOOD AND INTO GLOMERULAR CAPSULE, IT IS THE BLOOD CELLS AND PROTEDINS REMAIN IN BLOOD. |
| GLOMERULAR FITRATE | MATERIAL THE LEAVES BLOOD AND ENTERS THE NEPHRON |
| TUBULAR REABSORPTION | MOST OF FILTRATE LEAVES NEPHRON BY DIFFUSION,OSMOSIS, AND AVTIVE TRANSPORT,INGLURNVRF BY HORMONES (ALDOSTERONE,ANP), RETURNS TO BLOOF THROUH PERITUBULAR CAPILLARIES |
| TUBULAR SECRTION | MATERIAL MOVED FROM BLOOD INTO THE NEPHRON FOR EXCRTION. |
| CONCENTRATION OF URINE | COUNTERCURRENT MECHANISM METHOD FROM CONCENTRATION URINE BASED ON MOVEMENT OF IONS AND PERMEABILTIY OF TUBULE, ANTIDIURETIC HORMONE (ADH) IT RELEASED HORMONE FROM THE POSTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND,IT REABSORPTION OF WATER |
| REGULATION OF BLOOD PRESSURE | KIDNEYS NEED ADEQUATE BLOOD PRESSURE TO FILTER BLOOD |
