Urinary System: Anatomy Review 1. Name the organs in the urinary system: 1. 2 kidneys 2. 2 ureters 3. bladder 4. uethra 2. The kidneys are retroperitoneal (behind the peritoneum)‚ lying against the dorsal body wall in the upper abdomen. 3. The adrenal gland sits atop the kidneys. Blood vessels enter and leave the kidney at the renal cortex. 4. The functional units of the kidney are the nephrons. They are called renal pyramids if they are located mainly in the cortex. They are called renal

Respiration. *The respiratory system consists of tubes that filter incoming air and transport it into the microscopic alveoli where gases are exchanged the entire process of exchanging gases between the atmosphere and body cells is called respiration and consists of the following: ventilation‚ gas exchange between blood and lungs‚ gas transport in the bloodstream‚ gas exchange between the blood and body cells‚ and cellular respiration *The organs of the respiratory tract can be divided into two

stones and fluid balance. D. What are the three physiological processes involved in urine production? The 3 physiological steps are glomerular filtration‚ selective re-absorption‚ and tubular secretion. The glomerular filtration occurs in the glomerulus under hydrostatic pressure and is a passive form of filtration. It removes all the high molecular weight materials. Selective re-absorption occurs in the Loop of Henle. It is an active process in which ions and other essential materials are reabsorbed

renal failure (CRF) is the progressive loss of kidney function. The kidneys attempt to compensate for renal damage by hyperfiltration (excessive straining of the blood) within the remaining functional nephrons (filtering units that consist of a glomerulus and corresponding tubule). The cause for CRF sometimes can be determined by a detailed medical history‚ a comprehensive physical examination‚ and laboratory studies. CRF are common in patients who have multiple myeloma ( cancer that begins in atype

In the kidney plasma with some dissolved materials moves from the glomerulus into the Bowman’s capsule by the process of filtration. A person suffering from an inflammation of the nephrons will be diagnosed with brights disease. In order for a person to undergo peritoneal dialysis‚ a minor surgical procedure is needed to

The Human Heart The human heart is one of the most important organs in our bodies. However‚ it is basically a muscular structure that pumps blood. In this report‚ there will be information on the size‚ structure‚ function‚ and diseases/health problems of the human heart. The size of the human heart varies due to factors such as gender‚ size of the body‚ inheritance‚ and age. However‚ a normal size of a person’s heart is about the same size as his/her clenched fist (9cmx13cm)‚ and has a mass between

by which group of nerves is signaling. Since scents are complex‚ many different molecules and neurons will fire together to signal the brain for analysis. The axons of the olfactory receptor cells send signal to terminate the glomeruli. In each glomerulus‚ receptor cells carry scent information to the mitral cells. These mitral cells refine the scent information and send them to the brain to process. 9. A.The reticular activating system filters out the overflow of sensory inputs. Weak and unlikely

I. Kidney Anatomy A. Every day the kidneys filter nearly 200 liters of fluid from the bloodstream‚ allowing toxins‚ metabolic wastes‚ and excess ions to leave the body in urine while returning needed substances to the blood; of this‚ only 1-2 L of urine is actually formed daily B. Location and External Anatomy 1. Kidneys - bean-shaped organs that lie retroperitoneal in the superior lumbar region. 2. The medial surface is concave and has a renal
