Introduction
30-4
 System functions to remove waste products from the blood
 Main functional units of the kidneys are the nephrons
 Nephrons filter the blood and form the urine
Kidneys
Ureters

The Kidneys
30-5
Functions
Remove metabolic waste products from the blood
Secrete the hormone erythropoietin, which stimulates
bone marrow to produce red blood cells
Secrete the hormone renin, which helps regulate blood
pressure
Description
The kidneys are bean-shaped organs that lie behind the
peritoneal cavity (retroperitoneal) on either side of the
vertebral column.

The Kidneys (cont.)
30-6
 Renal sinus  concave depression of the surface of the kidney
 Hilum  point of entry for the renal artery, renal vein, and ureter
 Renal pelvis  expansion of the ureter that further divides into
calyces
 Renal cortex  outermost portion of the kidney that covers the
pyramids and dips down between them
 Renal medulla  middle portion that also divides into renal pyramids
 Renal column  portion of the cortex between pyramids
Kidney

The Kidneys: Nephrons
30-8
 Removes waste products from the blood
 Each kidney contains about 1 million nephrons
 Made of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule
Renal
Corpuscles
 Composed of a group of capillaries
called a glomerulus
 Glomerulus is surrounded by
Bowmans capsule
 Blood filtration occurs in corpuscle
 Extend from the Bowmans
capsule of a nephron
 Consist of three parts:
 Proximal convoluted tubule
 Loop of Henle
 Distal convoluted tubule
Renal
Tubules
Glomerulus

Veins of the Kidney
Afferent Arteriole
Glomerulus
Efferent Arteriole
Peritubular Capillaries
 Afferent arterioles deliver
blood to the glomeruli
 Efferent arterioles carry
blood from the glomeruli to
peritubular capillaries

What are the functions of the kidney?
ANSWER: The kidney removes metabolic waste products from the blood, secretes erythropoietin to help
regulate RBC production, and secretes renin to help regulate the BP.
Correct!

Urine Formation:
Glomerular Filtration
 First process occurs in renal
corpuscles
 Fluid part of the blood is forced from
glomerulous into Bowmans capsule
 Becomes glomerular filtrate
30-12
Glomerulus
Urine Formation:
Glomerular Filtration (cont.)
 Factors affecting glomerular filtration
 Filtration pressure  amount of pressure that forces
filtrate from the glomerulus into Bowmans capsule.
 Determined by blood pressure
 Rate of filtration  sympathetic nervous system control
 Constriction of afferent arterioles decreases filtration pressure
30-13
Urine Formation: Tubular Reabsorption
30-14
 Second process in urine formation
 Glomerular filtrate  proximal convoluted tubule
 Nutrients, water, and ions pass through the walls of the renal tubule into
the peritubular capillaries
 Water reabsorption depends on hormones
 Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
 Aldosterone
 Both increase water reabsorption, which decreases urine production
Tubular
Reabsorption

Urine Formation: Tubular Secretion
30-15
 Third process of urine
formation
 Substances move from
blood in the peritubular
capillaries into the renal
tubules
 Secreted substances
 Drugs
 Hydrogen ions
 Waste products
Tubular
Secretion

Urine Formation (cont.)
30-17
 Urine composition
 Mostly water
 Urea and uric acid
 Formed by the breakdown of proteins and nucleic acids
 Trace amounts of amino acids and various ions
 Secretion of waste products helps maintain the acid-base balance

Ureters, Urinary Bladder, and Urethra (cont.)

 Urinary bladder
 Expandable muscular organ
 Stores up to 600 ml urine on average
 Detrusor muscle  smooth muscle in wall of bladder
 Trigone  triangle on internal floor of bladder formed by urethra and
ureters
 Micturation
 Process of urination
 Stretching of bladder triggers process
 Approximately 150cc of urine
Bladder

 Urination
 External urethral sphincter

 Urine expelled
Impulses to contract
urethra; inhibit micturition
impulse until ready to
urinate

Diseases and Disorders of the Urinary
System
Disease/Disorder Description
Acute renal failure Sudden loss of kidney function; may be reversible with treatment
Chronic renal failure Kidneys slowly use ability to function; not reversible
Cystitis Urinary bladder infection; more common in females
Glomerulonephritis Inflammation of the glomeruli of the kidney; one cause of
chronic renal failure
Incontinence Inability to control urination
30-24
Diseases and Disorders of the Urinary System
Disease/Disorder Description
Polycystic kidney

In Summary
30-27
 The organs of the urinary system include the kidneys, ureters,
bladder, and urethra
 The kidneys remove metabolic waste products from the blood and
secrete erythropoietin and renin
 Urine travels through the ureters to the bladder
 Stretching of the bladder triggers micturition reflex
 Urine travels from the bladder through the urethra to the outside
world
