Number the following urinary system parts in the order a molecule of urea on its way to being excreted would pass through them. Some will not be used. Numbers 1 and 12 have been done for you. (You can also use the letters A through E to indicate the flow of an RBC through a healthy kidney).…
The renal system would compensate by controlling the output of acids, basis or carbon dioxide from the body within urine.…
12. Discuss filtration, reabsorption, and secretion in relation to the formation of urine by the kidneys.…
Introduction: In this lab we will learn how the kidney processes blood and produces urine.…
The renal system is also known as the urinary system. It consists of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and the urethra. The function of the renal system is to remove liquid waste from the blood and keep salts and other substances in the blood. The kidneys remove urea from blood by filtering. Besides filtering and eliminating wastes, the system also maintains homeostasis of water, ions, pH, acid and blood pressure. The renal system is a major homeostatic system because it maintains electrolyte balance, acid-base, and fluid balance; excrete nitrogenous wastes.…
The urinary system consists of two kidneys that filter the blood, two ureters, a urinary bladder, and a urethra to convey waste substances to the outside.…

Chief Crazy horse was and Oglala Lakota Indian chief who fought against removal to a reservation in the Black Hills. In the end the brave man gave his life for his tribe. The Lakota tribe gave his life for his tribe. The Lakota tribe wanted to honor one of their amazing chiefs by asking Korczak Ziolkowski, to make a sculptor of chief Crazy Horse.…
The kidneys are a vital bean shaped-shaped organ within the human body, located in the upper abdominal area they function in both regulating and filtering blood and controlling the body’s fluid balance through the removal of waste within the Mammalian Species.…
A person who is a good leader is like someone who would do anything for their people. he knows what his goal is but it seems impossible. Crazy Horse, a indian who know what the right thing to do is, he was famous for leading the battle of little bighorn. After reading online sources, it is clear that Crazy horse is a brave and fearless indian leader based on the information I read.…
During this laboratory exercise will identify by the graph given which is isotonic, hypotonic, or hypertonic. The kidneys are a pair of fist-sized organs located outside the peritoneal cavity on each side of the spine. The kidney is a highly specialized organ that maintains the internal environment of the body by selectively excreting or retaining various substances according to specific body needs. The process of urine formation and adjustment of blood composition involves three processes: glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption, and tubular secretion. The first part of the process of urine formation occurs in the glomeruli which act as filters, allowing water, glucose, salt and waste materials to pass through to the Bowman’s capsule but preventing and red blood cells and plasma proteins to pass through. Reabsorption occurs in the proximal tubules of the nephron. Water, glucose, amino acids, sodium and other nutrients are reabsorbed into the bloodstream in the capillaries surrounding the tubules. Water moves via the process of osmosis: movement of water from an area of higher concentration to one of lower concentration. Tubular secretion is the final step in the process of urine formation which transfers materials from peritubular capillaries to renal tubular lumen and occurs mainly by active transport. ADH is secreted by the posterior pituitary (neurohypophysis) when there is a decrease in water concentration (increase in osmolarity) which will cause an increase in water reabsorption (decrease in osmolarity). ADH most important function is to conserve the fluid volume of your body by reducing the amount of water passed out in the urine. When there is a decrease in serum sodium levels (decrease in osmolarity) the ACTH causes the adrenal cortex to release aldosterone, thereby increasing sodium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules of the kidney (increasing osmolarity). Aldosterone also acts on the kidney to reabsorb sodium and water…
“I just don’t understand how people can go through with one-night stands, I just can’t do it.” I just sat there for a little while in silent disbelief. I was trying to decide whether or not I should take offense to the statement or not. Before I could formulate my response, my friend Lavada said, “No offense to you, or anyone else, I just don’t get it.”…
1. Describe the mechanism by which normal fluid regulation in the body occurs? The kidneys remove extra body fluids in the bloodstream; this waste is stored in the bladder. If the fluid regulations system is working right the kidneys will make less urine to save your body’s fluids so you don’t become dehydrated.…
Formation of urine = in the DCT and collecting ducts, water movement out of the body is regulated by ADH.…
Unicorns are majestic creatures that have been around since bible times. I have come to believe in them to an extensive point. I have some facts and this paper is going to be the paper that proves unicorns real. The first known depiction of a unicorn—found in the Lascaux Caves of modern-day France—dates to around 15,000 BCE! Or so people thought, until they realized that the so-called Lascaux unicorn had two horns, drawn confusingly close together.…
