Q

How Blood Travel through Kidney

A

) Renal Artery -> Segmental Art -> interlobar art -> arcuate art -> interlobular art -> afferent arteriole -> Glomerulus -> efferent arteriole -> Peritubular OR vasa recta -> interlobular VEINS -> arcuate Veins -> interlobar veins -> Renal Veins

16
Q

Char of Proximal Convoluted tubule

A

Simple cuboidal; Microvilli; Cell reabsorbs nutrients and water

17
Q

Loop of Henle

A

Reabsorbs water and Ions; Has Descending Limb and Ascending limb

18
Q

Char of Descending Limb of Loop of Henle

A

(top)Thick; simple cuboidal Thin; simple squamous

19
Q

Ascending

A

Goes from Thin to thick. Thick; simple cuboidal while thin is simple squamous

20
Q

Distal convoluted tubule

A

1) Simple cuboidal 2) Microvilli 3) Water & Sodium reabsorption 4) Aldosterone and ADH act here(water retention)

21
Q

Collection Duct

A

1) Simple cuboidal 2) Merge to form Papillary Duct -> minor Calyx 3) ADH acts here

22
Q

Juxtaglomerular apparatus

A

1) Juxtaglomerular cells 2) Macula densa cells 3) regulates blood Pressure

23
Q

1) Juxtaglomerular cells

A

Smooth muscle of afferent arteriole

24
Q

Macula densa cells of Juxtaglomerular apparatus

A

In the Distal Convoluted Tubule(DCT) 2) Monitor electrolyte concentration and stimulate Juxtaglomerular cells to release RENIN

25
RENIN (hormone)
Act to release Aldosterone and ADH(water retention in the Macula densa in the Juxtaglomerular apparatus
26
Ureter
Connects Kidneys to Urinary bladder 2) Retroperitoneal 3) 2 Layers
27
Layer so of Ureters
1) Mucosa (transitional Tissue) 2) Muscularis ( inner longitudinal. Outer circular Smooth muscle)
28
Urinary Bladder Location
Posterior to pubic symphysis and Retroperitoneal
29
Function of Urinary Bladder
Holds Urine
30
Urinary Bladder Shape and Layers
Triangular shaped(trigone) 2) Mucosa (transitional with rugae) 3) Muscularis with detrusor muscle
31
Detrusor Muscle
Smooth muscle in the Bladder; make you pee
32
Urethra Connects
Bladder to exterior
33
2 sphincters of the Urethra
Internal Urethral; part of detrusor 2) external Urethral (SKELETAL MUS)
34
Female urethra
Urinary function and stratified squamous
35
Male Urethra Function
Urinary and reproductive
36
Parts of Meal urethra
Prostatic; transitional 2) Membranous; pseudostrat and Columnar 3) Spongy pseudo strat & strat squamous
