Answer 13

What is the Adipose capsule?

Question 14

This inner layer of the kidney is a smooth transparent sheet of connective tissue, which helps maintain the kidney shape and acts as a barrier against trauma.

Answer 14

What is the renal capsule?

Question 15

This is the superficial outer layer of the kidney with a reddish color. It’s smooth textured area, extends from the renal capsule to the base of the renal pyramids.

Answer 15

What is the renal cortex?

Question 16

This is the deep inner reddish brown region of the kidney containing 8 to 18 cone shaped structures called renal or medulla pyramids.

Answer 16

What is the renal medulla?

Question 17

The renal cortex and the renal pyramids constitute the functional portion of the kidney and within the functional portion of the kidneys are 1 million microscopic structures known as these.

Answer 17

What are nephron’s?

Question 18

This functional unit of the kidneys form the urine and it has two portions; the renal corpuscle and renal tubules

Answer 18

What are nephrons?

Question 19

In this part of the nephron, the urine is filtrated, and it’s further divided into two parts the glomerulus and the glomerular capsule….

Answer 19

What is the Renal Corpuscle?

Question 20

This is a network of capillaries in the kidneys, which as a filtration unit

Answer 20

What is the glomerulus

Question 21

This is a double walled , epithelial cup or tuft that surrounds the glomerulus.

Answer 21

What is the glomerular capsule a.k.a. Bowman capsule?

Question 22

This part of the nephron is where the filtered fluid passes through, and there are three sections, 1. the proximal convoluted tubule 2. loop of Henle, and 3. the distal convoluted tubule.

Answer 22

What are the Renal Tubules?

Question 23

This part of the nephron is where the distal convoluted tubule of the nephron empties its contents. It Collects urine formed in the nephron and drains it into the minor calyces and the major calves and then deliver it to the renal pelvis…

Answer 23

What is the Collecting duct?

Question 24

This is the large cavity located in the center of the kidney. It is formed by the expended proximal portion of the uterer.

Answer 24

What is the renal pelvis a.k.a. renal sinus?

Question 25

These two tubes that originate in the Reno pelvis, a.k.a. renal sinus, transport urine from the renal pelvis inside the kidney to urinary bladder, terminate in the posterior wall of the urinary bladder.

Answer 25

What are the ureters?

Question 26

Like kidneys, these tubes are also retro peritoneal

Answer 26

What are ureters?

Question 27

This hollow distensible has the ability to stretch and is located in the pelvic cavity posterior to the pubis symphysis; located just anterior to the rectum meals and interior to the vagina/inferior to the uterus in females + its function to store urine.

Answer 27

What is the urinary bladder?

Question 28

Its function is to store urine for micturition aka voiding

Answer 28

What is the urinary bladder?

Question 29

There are 2 ureteral openings and 1 urethral orifice, which makes up the gross structure of this organ

Answer 29

What is the structure of the urinary bladder?

Question 30

This smooth triangular region of the bladder is outlined by these openings.

Answer 30

What are Trigone?

Question 31

This is the epithelial tissue associated with the Urinary bladder, and it’s only found in the urinary bladder.

Answer 31

What is transitional epithelium?

Question 32

This epithelial tissue allows the bladder to stretch and accommodate earring, so it doesn’t explode. It also contains mucus to prevent the cells from coming in contact with urine and is a type of stratified epithelium having at least two layers.

Answer 32

What is the transitional epithelium of the urinary bladder?

Question 33

This is the muscular layer for the urinary bladder which is composed of three layers of smooth muscle, and when contracted, increases pressure on the bladder and creates a flow of urine.

Answer 33

What is the muscularis a.k.a. the detrusor muscle.

Question 34

This is a single tube that leads from the urinary bladder to the exterior of the body

Answer 34

What is the urethra?

Question 35

The type of urethra, serves as a passageway for discharging urine and is referred to as the terminal portion of the “this genders” urinary system. It is directly posterior to the pubic synthesis and only 1.5 inches long.

Answer 35

What is a female urethra?

Question 36

This serves as a duct through which urine and reproductive secretions are discharged from the body and is considered to be determined portion of “this genders” urinary and reproductive systems is located anterior to the rectum and is about 6 to 8 inches long. It will pass through three structures… before excreting urine.

Answer 36

What is the male urethra?

Question 37

The prostate grand, the urogenital membrane aka urogenital diaphragm and penis are the three structures of this body part

Answer 37

What is the male urethra?

Question 38

When the male urethra passes through the prostate gland is referred to as this

Answer 38

What is the prostatic urethra?

Question 39

When the male urethra passes through the urogenital membrane, a.k.a. the diaphragm it is referred to as this

Answer 39

What is the membranous urethra?

Question 40

When the male urethra passes through the penis, it is referred to as this

Answer 40

What is the spongy urethra?

Question 41

Once urine is formed in the nephron of the kidneys, it will travel down through this part and empty the urine into the collecting ducts 

Answer 41

What is the distal convoluted tubule?

Question 42

From the collecting ducts, the urine will follow the following passage…

Answer 42

The minor Calyxes, the major calyxes, the renal pelvis, a.k.a. renal sinus, the ureters, the urinary bladder, the urethra and done!
