collecting duct
renal papilla
minor calyx
major calyx
renal pelvis
ureter
bladder
urethra
What take urine directly to the urinary bladder?
ureter
tip of the renal pyramid
renal papilla
this cell type lines the bladder
umbrella

glomerulus
takes urine from the bladder to the exterior of the body
urethra
position of the kidneys relative to the parietal peritoneum
posterior
process in which urine empties from the bladder
micturition
lack of voluntary control over the external sphincter
incontinence
these cells function as blood pressure sensors in the wall of the afferent arterioles
juxtaglomerular
these function as chemoreceptors in the dct
macula densa
What do the juxtaglomerular and macula densa form?
juxtaglomerular apparaturs
filtrate contents are reabsorbed into the blood
reabsorption
