4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
Essential Questions What are the functions of the urinary system? What are some disorders of the urinary system? How are disorders of the urinary system treated? How do you relate the body’s hormone control to the urinary system? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
3
Understand the functions of the urinary system
Excretion Formation of urine Fluid and electrolyte balance Elimination of urine 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
4
Understand the functions of the urinary system

5
Understand the functions of the urinary system
Filtration Reabsorption Secretion 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
6
4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
Filtration Blood from renal artery enters glomerulus (more narrow vessels increase pressure) High pressure in glomerulus forces fluid into Bowman’s capsule, where it is filtered 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
7
4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
Filtration BOWMAN’S CAPSULE Bowman’s capsule filters out 125cc of fluid/min. …how many cc’s per hour is this? As the filtrate continues through nephron, 90% of water is reabsorbed—what would happen if reabsorption here failed? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
8
4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
Reabsorption What substances are reabsorbed? water, sugar, salts Where do they go? Back into the blood If blood levels of certain substances are high, the substances will not be reabsorbed.

Understand the functions of the urinary system
Fluid and electrolyte balance Chemical control The amount of ADH produced is related to the level of body hydration What factors regulate the release of ADH? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
16
Understand the functions of the urinary system
Forming more dilute urine: Define “dilute urine” What are diuretics? Increase urine output What effect do they have on the production of urine? Give examples of substances that have diuretic effects. 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
17
Understand the functions of the urinary system
Fluid and electrolyte balance Chemical control Aldosterone Where does it come from? Adrenal gland What does it do? Controls urinary secretion Aldosterone release is the result of the renin-angiotensin system. What does this mean? Renin is released by the kidneys when there is a decrease in BP stimulates aldosterone production and constricts vessels Problems with adrenal glands causes imbalance in salt and water balance in body 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
18
Understand the functions of the urinary system
Fluid and electrolyte balance What effect does this cycle have on your blood pressure? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
19
Understand the functions of the urinary system
Fluid and electrolyte balance Nervous control How does the nervous system control urinary secretions? Nerve impulses from blood vessels leading to kidneys and glomeruli What other systems are involved in the production and excretion of urine? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system

Understand the functions of the urinary system
review What do you predict will happen to blood pressure when the blood volume increases? What if blood volume decreases? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system
22
Understand the functions of the urinary system
