Q

function of the bladder

A

stores urine

17
Q

function of urethra

A

.

18
Q

3 sections of kidneys

A

medulla, cortex, pelvis

19
Q

Filtration

A

first step in blood processing that occurs in renal corpuscles (takes stuff out of blood into tubes)

20
Q

tubular reabsorption

A

second step in urine formation (occurs as a result of passive and active transport mechanisms from all parts ) –reabsorb back into blood stream

21
Q

tubular secretion

A

secreting out of blood stream

22
Q

what is used to regulate water and is actively transported

A

sodium

23
Q

3 regulating hormones

A

ADH, Aldosterone, Atrial Natriuretic Hormone (ANH)

24
Q

3 regulating hormones (absorption of water)

A

ADH-increases water reabsorption
Aldosterone-increase of water reabsorption
ANH-Decrease of water reabsorption
