23
Q

Consists of conical shaped structures called as _________.

A

Renal medulla, renal pyramids

24
______ of the pyramid faces the cortex and the _______ towards the hilum of the kidney
Base, Apex
25
Lining epithelium of collecting tubules
Simple cuboidal epithelium
26
Lining epithelium of collecting ducts(ducts of Bellini)
Simple columnar epithelium | *both collecting tubules and ducts show prominent cell boundaries
27
LE of descending limb of Henle
Simple cuboidal w/ brush border
28
LE of the thin limb of henle
Simple squamous epithelium
29
LE of ascending limb of Henle
Simple cuboidal epithelium w/ no brush border
30
LE of vasa recta(BV)
Simple squamous epithelium
31
To distinguish thin limb of loop of Henle from The vasa recta
- RBC can be seen in the lumen of vasa recta - Squamous cells lining the thin limb have a spherical nuclei which bulge into the lumen while the endothelial cells of the vasa recta are flat
32
Lumen of the female urethra
Crescentic lumen
33
What does the mucosa of the female urethra possess
Longitudinal folds
34
LE of female urethra
``` Initial= Transitional Midportion= pseudo/stratified columnar epithelium Termination= stratified squamous ```
35
LP of female urethra
LCT & branched tubular(urethra) glands
36
Muscularis layer of Female urethra
Thicker smooth muscle layer
37
Thick muscular wall
Urinary bladder
38
Mucosa of urinary bladder
Thrown into folds
39
UB mucosal cells: cuboidal/columnar eosinophilic cytoplasm
Basal cells
40
UB mucosal cells: polygonal, eosinophilic cytoplasm
Intermediate cells
41
UB mucosal cells: large ovoid, 1 or 2 nuclei; eosiniphilic cytoplasm; gives scalloped appearance mucosa
Surface cells/umbrella cells/dome cells
42
Lamina propia of urinary bladder
Loose and dense connective tissue
43
Muscularis of UB is made up of 3 ill defined layers of smooth muscle
Detrusor muscle
44
Adventitia of UB
LCT; serosa present only in the superior surface
