Urinary System- keep it up man- the Internal Urethral Sphinctor is...
pH Balance- what is it called when an acid or base is able to either COMPLETELY dissolve in water, and only PARTIALLY dissoleve in water?
pH Balance- now let's go back to the blood buffer system- the one we're gonna talk about is
Nephron FiltrationBut because of the nonselective nature of glomerular filtration... Important things could end up in the filtrate! What Can We DOOO?
Water Balance- oh no! we are dehydrated!- it's a good thing the hypothalamus has a _____ ________ it can trigger!
pH Balance- ok... let's review basic acids and basis, because these blood buffers have a lot of chemistry going on and we gotta understand it
Kidney Anatomy- here's the thing, we gotta know the anatomy of the nephron pretty well for the exam, so let's get at it- kinda starting from the end... but once teh nephron is done filtering out the water, it dumps it into these tubes called...
Nephron Filtration- and vice versa, if the peritubular capillaries have some waste product, like creatinine, they can dump it into the renal tubule at the end via:
Water Balance- Cool! Now that the thirst center has been activated, we start to feel thirsty!- now it would be AWESOME if we just took a drink of water here (which lowers solute concentration)but just in case we don't body can do something too! - Who do the osmoreceptors tell that we need more water?
Electrolyte Balance- basically, we need to drink water to help circulate blood so we can get nutrients everywhere!- the thing is tho, is that water is only able to get in the blood if there is a high _____ balance in the blood
The function of the Urinary System- end product of protein breakdown?it's like diarrhea
Kidney Anatomy + NephronPathway- and the Proximal + Distal Convoluted Tubule + the Loop of Henley is all called teh
Kidney Anatomy + NephronPathway- The Peritubular Capillaries are from the afferent or efferent tubules?
Water Balance- So, when we are Dehydrated, we have a high concentration of
The function of the Urinary System- end produce of Creatine breakdownself-explanatoryl we mentioned it before; just put a number in
Kidney Anatomy + NephronPathway- the bottom loop is called the
Kidney Anatomy + NephronPathway- so let's dive deeper into the Peritubular capillaries because that's basically how we filter!- we've got three ways to filter! Name em:
Kidney Anatomy + NephronPathway- Now, the convoluted tubules, especially at the bottom where it loops, they are surrounded by a bunch of blood vessels that we call...hint: so they are Around (peri) the tubes (Tubular) and they are a collection of tubules
Electrolyte Balance- so we need Na+ to stay in the blood!- it's a good thing that 80% of Na+ actually gets (what have we just talked about?
Kidney Anatomy + NephronPathway- When it comes back up to go into the Collecting Tubule it's called the
