True or False: The pronephros degenerates completely and contributes to nothing.
False.

Degenerates BUT the caudal portion of the pronephric duct contributes to the mesonephric duct

a. prosenephros
b. metanephros
c. mesenephros
metanephros
When does the metanephros begin functioning?
end of 9th week
What 2 structures does the metanephros form from?
ureteric bud
metanephric mesoderm
Where does the ureteric bud form from?
caudal end of mesonephric duct
What is the metanephric mesoderm?
the intermediate mesoderm that the ureteric bud grows into
The final adult kidney is from the

a. prosenephros
b. metanephros
c. mesenephros
metanephros

end of 9th week
What 2 structures does the metanephros form from?
ureteric bud
metanephric mesoderm
Where does the ureteric bud form from?
caudal end of mesonephric duct
What is the metanephric mesoderm?
the intermediate mesoderm that the ureteric bud grows into
Urine COLLECTING structures are formed from what
ureteric bud
What does the ureteric bud induce the metanephric mesoderm to do
form tubules that will form urine
The ureteric bud forms what structures
urine collecting structures

ureters
renal pelvis
major/minor calyces
collecting ducts/tubules
Metanephric tubules formed from metanephric mesoderm will develop into what structures
Bowman's capsule/membrane
Proximal convoluted tubule
loop of Henle
Distal convoluted tubule
The renal corpuscle is
Bowman's capsule + glomerulus
The nephron is
urine forming structures

(glomerulus, Bowman's capsule, prox convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule)
The uriniferous tubule is
the nephron + collecting duct
Before they ascend from the pelvis, the kidneys blood supply was from the
iliac arteries/veins
Why is there such considerable variation in the blood supply to the kidney in adults?
kidneys ascend from pelvis and change blood supply along the way
What percentage of adults have multiple arteries/veins to their kidenys?
30%
True or False: If the kidneys do not ascend they will not be functional.)
False.

Still functional just ectopic
A horseshoe kidney forms because of what
inferior poles of each kidney fuse together
If a ureteric bud forms but never induces the metanephric mesoderm, the fetus will have
renal agenesis

(never induced to form the kidney
True or False: Polycystic kidney disease can be congenital or acquired.
True.
Renal failure in childhood is due to what sort of inheritance pattern of polycystic kidney disease
recessive inheritance
Renal failure in adulthood is due to what type of inheritance pattern of polycystic kidney disease
autosomal dominant inheritance

the bladder
The pelvic region of the urogenital sinus (from the cloaca) will become
prostatic urethra in male
urethra in female
The phallic region of the urogenital sinus (from the cloaca) will become
penile urethra in male
vestibule of vagina in female

(vestibule = opening between labia minora)
