te occurs in renal vein. 2. The glomerular capillaries differ from other capillary networks in the body because they are derived from and drain into arterioles. 3. Damage to the renal medulla would interfere first with the functioning of the collecting ducts. 4. Which is reabsorbed by the proximal convoluted tubule cells?Na+‚K+‚ amino acids. 5. Glucose is not normally found in the urine because it is reabsorbed by the tubule cells. 6. Filtration at the glomerulus is inversely related to capsular hydrostatic pressure

The Urinary System is a group of organs in the body concerned with filtering out excess fluid and other substances from the bloodstream. The substances are filtered out from the body in the form of urine. Urine is a liquid produced by the kidneys‚ collected in the bladder and excreted through the urethra. Urine is used to extract excess minerals or vitamins as well as blood corpuscles from the body. The Urinary organs include the kidneys‚ ureters‚ bladder‚ and urethra. The Urinary system works with

require the use of ATP energy. During passive processes‚ molecules are transported through the membrane by differences in concentration or pressure between the inside and outside of the cell. Two important types of passive process are diffusion and filtration. Every cell in the human body uses diffusion as an important transport process through its selectively permeable membrane. During diffusion‚ molecules that are small enough to pass through a membrane’s pores or molecules that can dissolve in the

V. Anatomy and Physiology The Urinary Tract The Urinary System rids the body of nitrogenous wastes while regulating water‚ electrolyte‚ and acid-base balance of the blood. Kidneys Kidneys are small‚ dark red organs with a kidney-bean shape lie against the dorsal body wall in a retroperineal position (beneath the parietal peritoneum) in the superior lumbar region. The kidneys extend from T12 to the L3 vertebra; thus they receive some protection from the lower part of the rib cage. Because

Experiment simulations examine substances that move passively through a semipermeable membrane‚ and those that require active transport. Those that move passively through the membrane will do so in these simulations by facilitated diffusion and filtration. The plasma membrane’s structure is composed in such a way that it can discriminate as to which substances can pass into the cell. This enables nutrients to enter the cell‚ while keeping unwanted substances out. Active transport requires that the
