Block 4 - Uriniferous Tubule Flashcards
juxtamedullary nephrons are blank compared to cortical
longer (goes deeper)
three parts of renal corpuscle
glomerulus, urinary space, outer lining membrane (bowmans corpuscle
cell types of the glomerulus
podocytes, endothelial cells, mesangial cells
podocytes are located in blank
bowmans capsule
endothelial cells are around blank
capillaries
kidney is the only place in the body that has blank epithelium without blank
fenestrated, diaphragms
most deeply stained aciophilic tubules
proximal
blank tubules often have blank that touch the surface of the inside of the membrane
distal
defining feature of thin tubule
super thin simple squamous epithelium
defining feature of collecting tubule
cell borders obvious
proximal convoluted tubule can be identified by being in the blank
convoluted cortex
medulla doesnt have blank tubules
convoluted
inner medulla contains these
papillary ducts
afferent arteriole has more blank than efferents
smooth muscle
these form a cusion between the arterioles and the distal tubule
mesangial cells
