Exam 3 - urinary mace Flashcards

1
Q

What are the 5 functions of the urinary system?

A
  1. Excretion of wastes
  2. Regulates
    • blood volume- alters fluid loss
    • blood composition- inorganic ion balance/pH balance
  3. Secretion hormones and enzymes
    • Releases EPO in response to low O2
    • calcitriol and renin
  4. Detoxifies free radicals/drugs
  5. Gluconeogenesis (during starvation)

Q

Does glomerular filtration move in both directions (from blood to capsular space/ from capsular space into blood)?

A

Nope, substances only move from the blood within the glomerulus into the capsular space.

21
Q

Renin will _____ glomerular filtration.

increase
decrease

A

decrease

22
Q

will contraction of mesangial cells increase or decrease GFR

A

Decrease

23
Q

As the osmotic pressure of the blood _____ ADH is released.

increases

A

increases

24
Q

What two effects does ANP have on the nephron?

A

Vasodilation of afferent arteriole and relaxation os mesangial cells.

25
Q

What two things does ANP inhibit?

A

inhibits release of renin and aldosterone

26
Q

Which cells in the collecting duct reabsorb K+ and which ones vary K+ secretion depending on aldosterone levels

A
  1. Intercalated cells reabsorb K+ continuously

2. Principle cells vary K+ secretion depending on aldosterone levels

27
Q

What hormone inhibits reabsorption of PO4 in PCT and stimulates reabsorption of Ca+ in DCT

A

PTH

28
Q

What type of cells make up the PCT and DCT

A

simple cuboidal

29
Q

What type of cells make up the loop of henle

A

squamous

30
Q

What gets secreted at the PCT

A

ammonia (nitrogenous waste) and some drugs

31
Q

Which one is impermeable to water. The Ascending limb or descending limb of the loop of henle

A

The Ascending limb.

32
Q

When does filtrate have the greatest salt concentration. At the bottom of the descending limb or top of ascending limb?

A

Bottom of descending limb. Filtrate looses water as it goes down the descending limb increasing osmolarity.

33
Q

Where is the first adjustment to filtrate made?

A

in the DCT

Q

Would ANP increase or decrease Na+ reabsorption in DCT?

A

Decrease

35
Q

Would aldosterone increase or decrease Na+ absorption in the DCT?

A

Increase

36

A

The intercalated cells

37
Q

If the Ph of the urine is high what will the intercalated discs secrete? H+ ions or HCO3.

A

HCO3 to lower Ph and vis versa. If Ph is low they will secrete H+ ions to increase Ph

Q

The external sphincter is controlled by what nervous system?

A

somatic nervous system from the cerebral cortex

40
Q

The involuntary micturition reflex is controlled by what nervous system?

A
