Parts of the Urinary System
-
2 bean shaped organs on both sides of vertebral column
kidneys
-
outer layer (hard
coretex
-
inner layer (soft)
medulla
-
nephrons, ureters, bladder, urethra
inside the medulla
-
microscopic filtering units (they do the work of the kidneys to filture the blood)
nephrons
-
tube that drains urine from kidney to bladder
ureters
-
holds urine until it leaves body (expandable muscle, It can shrink or expand)
bladder
-
tube that drains urine from bladder to outside world
urethra
-
excretion, secretion, elimination
purpose of urinary system
-
removal of waste products and other unwanted elements from blood
excretion
-
the production of urine (blood is transportation unit of body, kidneys squeeze the blood. Everything comes out, as the elements come out,the body counts it and then puts the elements back in, when elements go back in, the brain tells ur body where to send the blood. Everything that does not go in is what becomes urine) Your bladder fills then,
secretion
-
removal of urine from the bladder
elimination
-
Keeps homeostasis (*balance in body, ability to keep body functioning even when sick) by removing toxins
Helps remove additional fluid from the body
Helps maintain blood pressure
Neutralizes substances
Helps keep body energized
Works with other bodily systems
functions of urinary system
-
Microscopic filtering units,
Over 1 million in each kidney,
Fluid passed through ureter and drained into bladder,
Bladders stores urine until enough is collected for elimination
nephrons
-
-
in the intestines because it has a hollow space. If you don’t drink water every day your body will pull it from ur intestines, so now u have shitty water in your body.
-
is a one way passage to the heart but before the heart the bloods stops at the kidneys
arteries
-
filtration, reabsorbation, secretion
-
-
the process of removing substances from the blood
filtration
-
the process of recycling removed substances to be reused by the body
reabsorbation
-
the process of moving substances from the blood and creating urine
secretion
-
elements removed from from blood include:
water, amino acids, glucose, electrolytes
-
Elements reabsorbed by the body include:
Potassium, calcium, amino acids, sodium, chloride
-
physical, chemical, microscopic examination of urine
urinalysis
-
a procedure that allows a physician to see the inside of the lower urinary tract to detect
Cystoscopy
-
mechanical process of removing waste from blood
dialysis
-
removal of damage kidney for a donated kidney
kidney transplant
-
medulla and coretex
parts of kidney
