LABORATORY REPORT RENAL PHYSIOLOGY INTRODUCTION: The kidneys‚ which maintain the purity and constancy of our internal fluids‚ are perfect examples of homeostatic organs. They regulate the chemical content the pH and osmotic pressure of the blood. Kidneys filter gallons of fluid from the bloodstream. They then process this filtrate‚ allowing wastes and excess ions to leave the body in urine while returning needed substances to the blood in just the right proportions. Factors that affect urine
