Q

what is the renal corpuscle?

A
  • an enlarged bulbous region of nephron
  • glomerulus: where the capillary beds are! NOTE: THIS COMES FROM THE AFFERENT ARTERIOLE and blood EXITS from the EFFERENT ARTERIOLE

Q

where is reabsorption in the kidney?

A

proximal convoluted tubule

20
Q

how much blood is filtered a day?
how much becomes urine?

A

180-200L of blood are filtered a day, but only 1.8-2L becomes urine

21
Q

what is a poddocyte?

A

a special cell only in the glomerular capsule :)
- has feet like extensions that cover capillaries
- prevents nutrients/important cells from being filtered into urine! no waste here!

22
Q

what is the vasa recta?

A

this is the capillary bed that surrounds the loop of henley

23
Q

what part of the urinary system has peristalsis?

A

that would be the ureters!

24
Q

the _______ and the _________ are controlled by both SNS and PSNS

A
  • ureters
    -urinary bladder
25
Q

where is the detrusor muscle found?

A

in the bladder!

26
Q

the internal sphincter is…..

A

involuntary —> controlled by the autonomic nervous system

27
Q

the external sphincter is…..

A

voluntary —> the detrusor muscle is trained to open and excrete urine

28
Q

how long is the female urethra vs male urethra?

A

female: 3-4cm long
male: 20cm

29
Q

what is the enzyme from salivary glands?

A

amylase!

30
Q

mouth’s function in digestion?

A

chemical and mechanical things
- mastication
- enzymes

31

A

epithelium + underlying lamina propria

32
Q

mucosa epithelium is made of:

A

simple columnar + nonkeratinized stratified squamous

33
Q

mucosa underlying lamina propria is made of:

A

areolar tissue + small bvs + nerves

34
Q

submucosa has:

A
  • areolar + dense CT
  • LOTS of bvs
35
Q

what nervous system allows for digestion?

A

parasympathetic nervous system

36
Q

how often are cells here regenerated?

A

every 3-5 days
- this is because it is a very harsh environment :/

Q

what is the mastication center?

A

medulla + pons !!!
