21
Q

Proximal convoluted tube becomes

Loop of henle

22
Q

Ascending limb of loop of Henle becomes

A

Distal convoluted tube

23
Q

Distal convoluted tube becomes

A

Collecting tube

24
Q

Many collecting tubes drain into

A

Collecting duct in the cortex

25
Many collecting tubes drain into
Collecting duct in the cortex
26
The collecting ducts continue to the ___ And terminate in the ___
Medulla Renal papilla
27
From renal papilla, urine goes to
Minor calyx then Major calyx then Renal pelvis then The ureters Urinary bladder Voided
28
Three different processes that occur to tubular fluid in nephron before considered urine
Filtration Tubular reabsorption Tubular secretion
29
Filtration
Glomerulus is compressed of fenestrated capillaries
30
Tubular reabsorption
While the fluid is in the tubular system, any filtrate needed by the body is reabsorbed
31
Tubular secretion
Substances that the body doesn’t need get secreted from capillaries
32
Renal corpuscle is made of two structures
Glomerulus Thick tangle of fenestrated capillaries Glomerular capsule Epithelial capsule surrounding glomerulus
33
Where do the afferent arterioles enter and become the glomerulus in the renal corpuscle Efferent arterioles exit
Vascular pole
34
On the vascular pole, where does the proximal convoluted tube begin the tubular system?
Tubular pole
35
Glomerulus is comprised of 2 layers
Visceral layer Parietal layer
36
Visceral layer
Made up of podocytes Each podocyte has pedicles
37
Parietal layer
Made up of simple squamous epithelium, lines inside of capsule
38
Where does proximal convoluted tube begin
Tubular pole of the glomerulus
39
Descending limb of nephron loop
Leaves cortex and enters medulla
40
Ascending limb of nephron loop
Leaves medulla and renters the cortex
41
Area comprised of distal convoluted tubule and two arterioles is called
Juxtaglomerular apparatus
42
Juxtaglomerular apparatus contains 2 cells
Juxtaglomerular cells Mácula densa cells
43
Smooth muscle found in walls of bladder
Detrusor muscle
44
Smooth muscle spin in get at the union of bladder and urethra is
Internal urethral sphincter
45
Male urethra divided into three parts
Prostatic Membranous Spongy
