Glomerular Capsule

Permeable visceral layer fused with capillaries


Impermeable parieatal layer


Capsular space that receives filtrate



Renal Tubule

PCT


NL


DCT


Cortical Nephrons


SHORT nephron loop that extend DEEP in medulla

Juxtamedullary Nephrons

LONG nephron loop extending deep in medulla


F: Urine concentration

Juxtaglomerular Apparatus

F: regulates filtrate formation and Blood P


Includes- Granular cells: mechanoreceptors


Macula Densa- Chemoreceptors

Principle Cells

Regulate urine concentration, respond to ADH and aldosterone hormone.

Intercalated Cells

regulates urine PH

Glomerular Formation

mvm of substance into capsular space due to pressure differences across filtration membrane

Tubular Reabsorbtion

tubular fluid back into Blood


By: Diffusion, osmosis and active transport

Tubular Secretion

Blood to Tubular Space


By: Active Transport


Glomerular Hydrostatic Pressure

PUSHES water and some solutes out and into the glomeruus

Blood Colloid Pressure

PULL fluuids back into glomerulus

Capsular Hydrostatic Pressure

RESISTS Mvm of additional fluids

Intrinsic Control

DONE by the kidney


Goal: MAINTAIN the BASIC RATE of filtration despite the small fluctuations of BP


Extrinsic Control

DONE by Nervouse and Endocrine System


Goal: Alters the Basic Rate of filtration if the bodys needs and conditions change


Ex: STRESS (EEE), Hemorrhaging


Sub. REabsorbed completly

We cannot afford to excrete them so our body has ways of storing them in a form that does not disrupt homeostasis


Sub. with Regulated Reabsorption

We have little/no capacity to store them in a way that maintains blood homeostasis. The amount is constantly adjusted by hormones to maintain homeostasis.

Sub. Reabsorbed Completely

Organic nutrients


Small proteins need to be ENDOCYTIZED and broken down into Amino Acids in order to enter capillaries.


Acidic State

"A" Intercalated Cells

Alkaline State

"B" Intercalated Cells

Descending limb

Impermeable to salt


Permeable to water

Ascending Limb

Impermeable to water


Permeable to salt

Acidic

Protein and Wheat

Basic

Fruits and Vegetables

Detrusor Muscle

3 layers of smooth muscle

Internal Urethral Sphincter

Smooth muscle controlled by Autonomic Nervous system

External Urethral Sphincter

Skeletal muscle fibers or urogenital diaphragm, controlled by Somatic Nervous system

Micturition

Storage Reflux


Micturition Reflux

Storage Reflux

-Relaxation of Detrusor muscle to accommodate Increasing Urine Volume


-Contraction of the internal AND external sphincters to retain urine

Micturition reflux

1. Baroreceptors in the bladder wall are activated and send signals to the Cerebral Cortex and Micturition center in the Pons.


2. Contraction of the bladder and relaxation of internal urethral sphincters. "toilet training"



Conscious control

Conscious control

Relaxation of External Sphincters by contraction of Abbs and expiratory muscles.

Ovaries

Paired Oval organs located within in the pelvic cavity. Larger than an almond. Anchored by chords and sheets of connective tissue,

Follicle

Oocyte+Follicular Cells (Granulosa Cells)

Primordial Follicle

Primary oocyte (Prophase 1)


Contain a single layer of flattened follicular cells

Primary Follicle

Primary Oocyte (Prophase 1) Multiple layers of follicular cells that SECRETE Estrogen.

Secondary Follicle

Primary Oocyte (Prophase 1)


Develops Zona Pellucida (protein coat)


and Corona Radiata (inner follicular cells) which are both protective structures around the oocyte.

Vesicular Follicle (Tertiary, Mature Follicle)

Secondary Oocyte


1 per month will mature


Many layers of granulosa cells, and a very large antrum.


Will reupture to release oocyte (ovulation)


Corpus Luteum

NO oocyte


Secrete Progesterone and Estrogen that stimulate build up of Uterine lining

Corpus Albicans

No Oocyte. Connective tissue scar.

Urinoid
Normal smell of fresh pee
Urobilin
Urine is Clear to dark yellow depending on this degrading product of heme
Abnormal components
Glucose, ketones, and proteins in more than trace amounts, bile, erythrocytes, hemoglobin, leukocyte
