to get rid of waste
what does the urinary system conist of
two kidneys

the first step of urine production describe
move through blood in to the very first tubule(proximal) by hydrostatic and osmotic pressure
filtrate
whatever passes through the capsule during the filtration stage can be water glucose elctrolytes uric acid ect
urine formation starts off as ___ and ends as ___
filtrate urine
now once it enters the proximal the firtate has a choice to exchange stuff between the
peritubular capillary and the loop of henle
once we get to the collecting duct the ___ is a final product and is called fitrate til gets here
urine
filtration is controlled by
-the hydrostic pressure in the capsule
-increase blood volume in the capsule
autoregulation
self regulation, is when no matter what your bp is can keep the same constant blood flow to itself(maintaining blood volume)
briain, kidneys
reabsorption
put good things back in the blood from the filtate into the paeritubular capillary starts as soon as it get in the loop of henle
excretion
is when the peritubular capilarries dumps into the loop of henle to get rid of bad things
start in the loop of henle and continues throughout the entire nephron
reabsortion excretion
passive transport
no e-, greater conc. to less conc, use carrier molecules sometimes
-filtration
osmosis
-diffusion simple and faciliated- only one uses carriers
active transport
requires e-, less conc to higher conc. always have crriers proteins
how we move things in the second and third stage (reabsorption, excretion)
passive transport
active transport
diff between passive n active transport
p- no e-
a- always has carriers
p-h to l
a- low to h
types of passive transport
-filtration
osmosis
-diffusion simple and faciliated- only one uses carriers
reabsorption uses ___ transport
requires e- and carriers so is active transport
limited transport capacity
is limted by the number of carriers so you can not get every thing put of the nephron(reabsortion stage n excretion)
you have a limited amount of ___ wich is called
carriers, limited transport capaacity
kidneys
water, electrolytes, ph
when you get dehydrated you release
ADH, 1-2%
ADH info
hypothalumus makes it and is stored and releases by the pitiutary effects the distal n collecting duct
what percent % of dehyydration triggers ADH
1-2%
what does dehydration result in
release of ADH and more concentrated urine
is when water removed from urine and returned to the blood is caused by
ADH

92-95% agua
urine composition is effected by diet n excercise makes morec concentarted

can be problems
blood in urine can be due to

can block ureters and have to be physical removed
