The Urinary System Lesson 1: 31 The Urinary System Lesson 1:

Lesson Objectives Upon completion of this lesson, students should be able to … Define and spell the terms to learn for this chapter. Describe the purpose and function of the urinary system. Identify the structure and function of the individual organs of the urinary system.

Lesson Objectives List and discuss the three processes involved in the formation of urine. Explain the normal constituents of urine.

Structures of the Urinary System 4

Overview of the Urinary System Function Produce and excrete urine from the body To remove metabolic waste from blood Nephrons in kidneys filter blood to accomplish removal of wastes. Nephron in the kidney (more to come on nephrons later.) 5

Urine Is the waste product produced by the kidneys Contains mostly water as well as salts and nitrogen compounds Drains from the kidneys through the ureters to the bladder Is stored in the bladder Bladder empties during urination 6

Structure of the Kidneys Bean-shaped organs Located at the posterior region of the abdominal cavity between the 12th thoracic and 3rd lumbar vertebrae Encased in three capsules for protection True capsule Perirenal fat Renal fascia 7

External Structure of the Kidneys Hilum Entrance for renal arteries, nerves, and lymphatic vessels Renal Pelvis Collection point for urine before it is transported to the ureter 8

Internal Structure of the Kidneys Cortex Outer layer Contains arteries, veins, convoluted tubules, and glomerular capsules (part of the nephron) Medulla Inner layer Renal pyramids contain collecting tubules 9

The Nephron Functional unit of the kidney Each kidney contains more than one million nephrons 10

The Nephron Nephron consists of: Glomerulus Bowman’s Capsule Renal tubule Proximal convoluted tubule Loop of Henle Distal convoluted tubule Collecting tubule 11

Ureters Two muscular tubes that carry urine from the kidneys down to the urinary bladder Composed of three layers Inner mucous membrane Middle layer of smooth muscle Outer fibrous layer About 28–34 cm (10–12 in.) long and less than 1 mm to 1 cm (¼ inch) in diameter 12

The Urinary Bladder Consists of four layers Stretches to hold urine Inner layer of epithelium Layer of smooth muscle Layer of longitudinal muscle Outer fibrous layer Stretches to hold urine Urge to urinate typically occurs when the adult bladder holds 300–350 mL of urine Empties through the urethra and the urinary meatus 13

Urethra Musculomembranous tube extending from the bladder to the urinary meatus, the external opening of the urinary system In males, the urethra is approximately 20 cm long and transports both urine and semen The male urethra has three sections: Prostatic Membranous Penile

Female Urethra In females, the urethra is approximately 3 cm long and transports only urine Its external opening is situated between the clitoris and the opening of the vagina

Urine Filtration Process Blood pressure forces small molecules in the blood into the nephron through the pores in the walls of the glomerular capillaries and the Bowman’s capsule 16

Urine Filtration Process Reabsorption As the filtrate passes through the tubules, water and dissolved materials are reabsorbed by the blood Secretion Other substances (waste) are transported into the filtrate to become urine 17

Facts About Urine Consists of water, hydrogen ions, and uric acid Adult passes about 1,000–1,500 mL of urine daily Characteristics of normal urine Clear versus cloudy Straw colored Specific gravity of 1.003–1.030 Slightly acidic pH of about 6 Specifications of normal urine vary with age 18
