“The Urinary System” The Urinary System is a group of organs in the body concerned with filtering out excess fluid and other substances from the bloodstream. The organs included in the urinary system are the kidneys‚ ureters‚ bladder‚ and urethra. The kidneys are two bean-shaped‚ reddish brown organs about the size of your fist. The renal capsule‚ a tough capsule of fibrous connective tissue‚ covers the kidneys. The ribcage protects the kidneys which are located in the back just above the

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

URINARY SYSTEM This system consists of the KIDNEYS‚ URETERS‚ URETHRA‚ and BLADDER. Not many structures‚ but very important. Functions: 1. Regulate electrolytes (K‚ Na‚ etc) in body 2. Regulate pH in blood 3. Regulate blood pressure 4. Regulate blood volume 5. Removing metabolic wastes (chemicals produces by chemical reactions in the body are excreted). This is the least important of the kidney’s functions. You can survive for a few weeks without excreting waste products in the urine‚ but hour
