1. Urinary system Lab 10

3. Kidney Bean-shaped organs lying along dorsal wall of the abdominal cavity Produce urine Renal cortex Renal medulla Renal pelvis Nephron

4. Its chief function is to regulate the concentration of water and soluble substances like sodium salts by filtering the blood, reabsorbing what is needed and excreting the rest as urine.

5. Each nephron composed of several parts

6. Urine formation three steps  Glomerular filtration Small molecules (Aa, Glucose, H 2 O, salts, urea) → glomerular Capsule  Tubular reabsorption Aa, Glucose, H2O, salts, urea → blood vessel (blood pressure & PH)  Tubular secretion H + ions, ammonia… → tubule

8. Kidneys functions Excreting nitrogenous wastes Contributing to homeostasis * : – Maintaining acid–base balance – Regulating blood pressure (via maintaining salt and water balance) *Homeostasis is the property of a system that regulates its internal environment and tends to maintain a stable, relatively constant condition of properties such as temperature or pH.

9. Transportation of the urine
