Parts of Urinary System
Kidneys, Ureters, Bladder, Urethra
Internal Parts of Kidney
Capsule, Cortex, Nephrons, Medulla, Renal Pyramid, Renal Columns, Renal Papilla, Minor Calyx, Major Calyx, Renal Pelvis, Renal Pelvis
Renal Blood Pathway
Renal Artery, Afferent arterioles, Glomerular Capillaries, Efferent arterioles, Peritubular capillaries, venule, vein, heart
Tubular Fluid Patrhway
Bowman’s Capsule, Proximal Convoluted tubular, Nephron Loop Decending, Nephron loop Acending, Distal convoluted tubule, collecting duct, minor calyx, major calyx, ureter, bladder, urethra
3 processes that take place in nephron
Filtration, reabsorption, Secretion
2 types of Nephrons
Cortical- commom, more in cortex Juxtamedullary deeper in cortex dip into medulla, handle water regulation
Juxtaglomerular apparatus
plays role in secretion of renin when blood pressure drops
Renin-angiotensin system
Protein Angiotensinogen produced by liver, Kidney secrets Renin when blood pressure drops in the Juxtaglomerular Apparatrus, Renin combines with Angiotensinogen to form Angiotensin I, Lung secrets ACE to form Angiotensin II which causes Aldosterone secretion (Na+), and ADH (water retention).
Proximal Convoluted Tubular
where most of reabsorbtion takes place, water, Na+, amino acids, glucose
desending nephron loop
H2O reabsorbtion, passive
