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 2
3
Functions : Excretion Formation of urine Fluid and electrolyte balance Elimination of urine 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 3

Functions : Excretion Formation of urine Fluid and electrolyte balance Elimination of urine 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 4
5
Excretion What is excretion? Why does the body have excretory functions? What is the composition of wastes excreted by the urinary system? How is it relevant to health? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 5
6
Filtration Reabsorption Secretion 6
7
Blood from renal artery enters glomerulus High pressure in glomerulus forces fluid into Bowman’s capsule, where it is filtered 7
8
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
9
What substances are reabsorbed? Where do they go? If blood levels of certain substances are high, the substances will not be reabsorbed. How does this help maintain homeostasis? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 9
10
What is secretion? Describe how this process is the opposite of reabsorption…. 10
11
What substances are secreted into the collecting tubules? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 11
12
Fluid and electrolyte balance Electrolytes are selectively secreted to maintain body’s acid-base balance. What are electrolytes? What do they do? What is the relevance to health? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 12
13
Fluid and electrolyte balance Chemical control ADH Aldosterone Nervous control 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 13
14
Fluid and electrolyte balance Chemical control ADH – Antidiuretic hormone Aldosterone 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 14
15
Fluid and electrolyte balance Chemical control ADH ADH is released by the posterior pituitary gland What is the function of ADH (antidiuretic hormone)? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 15
16
Fluid and electrolyte balance Chemical control ADH The amount of ADH produced is related to the level of body hydration ADH What factors regulate the release of ADH? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 16
17
Forming more dilute urine: Define “dilute urine” What are diuretics? 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
18
Fluid and electrolyte balance Chemical control Aldosterone Where does it come from? What does it do? Aldosterone release is the result of the renin- angiotensin system. What does this mean? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 18
19
Fluid and electrolyte balance 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system What effect does this cycle have on your blood pressure? 19
20
Fluid and electrolyte balance Nervous control How does the nervous system control urinary secretions? What other systems are involved in the production and excretion of urine? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 20
21
4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system Review urine formation, electrolyte exchange, and some factors that effect urine volume. 21
22
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 review 22
23
If more water is reabsorbed back into the body---what will happen to urine concentration? (more or less concentrated?) If more water is reabsorbed back into the body---what will happen to urine concentration? (more or less concentrated?) 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system review 23
24
Elimination of urine What causes the bladder to empty? Is this a voluntary or involuntary action? What can prevent urination? How is urinary retention treated? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 24
25
Elimination of urine Urinary output 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system Average urinary output = 1500 ml per day * How many ounces is this? What effects the color of your urine? 25
26
An examination of urine What does normal urine look like? What constitutes an abnormal urinalysis? 4.02 Understand the functions and disorders of the urinary system 26
27
