5. Match the appropriate structure in column B to its description in column A. Column A 1. smooth membrane, tightly adherent to the kidney surface 2. portion of the kidney containing mostly collecting ducts 3. superficial region of kidney tissue 4. basinlike area of the kidney, continuous with the ureter 5. a cup-shaped extension of the pelvis that encircles the apex of a pyramid 6. tissue running between the renal pyramids Column B a. cortex b. fibrous capsule C. medulla d. minor calyx e. renal column f. renal pelvis

1. Site of filtrate formation? 2. The structure that conveys the processed filtrate (urine) to the renal pelvis? 3. Blood supply that directly receives substances from the tubular cells? 4. The primary site of tubular reabsorption? 5. Two substances thta are routinely found in filtrate but not in the urine product? 6. Which has greater specific gravity: 1 ml of urine or 1 ml of distilled water?

Is this the correct answer of labeling the name the components of the male urinary system?

Indicate the type of nephridium shown in the figure above_____________________________ Name the labeled structures A (entire brown structure)  & B and indicate the step in the excretory process occurring at each. Structure Name                           Process step A.                                                    B.

28. Which is correct? Last option is incorrect

The correct pathway of urine from the renal pyramid to the outside of the body is: 1. Ureter               2. Lumen of bladder       3. Minor calyx 4. Major calyx      5. Renal papilla                6. Renal pelvis 7. Urethra             8. Renal sinus   Question 34 options:   5, 3, 4, 6, 1, 2, 7   5, 4, 3, 6, 7, 2, 1   5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 1, 2, 7   5, 3, 4, 8, 1, 2, 7

The following structures are within the kidney. Place them in order that fluid traveling through thee nephron (including blood before its filtered) hits that structure from where blood enters to where urine exits the kidney. 1. Juxtaglomerular apparatus 2. collecting duct 3. proximal tubule 4. podocytes

1. The location of the kidneys in the body is best described as being: In the pelvic cavity In the mediastinum retroperitoneal In the thoracic cavity 2. Place the structures of the renal tubule in the correct order from the start of filtration to completed urine in the collecting duct. descending (proximal) loop of Henle proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) distal convoluted tubule ascending (distal) loop of Henle Bowman's capsule 3. Place the structures of the blood flow in the nephron in the correct order. glomerulus afferent arteriole peritubular capillaries efferent arteriole cortical radiate veins

The following structures articulate with the kidneys at the hilum: D - major calyx B - renal veins A and B A - renal arteries A, B, and C C - ureter A, B, C, and D

A 75 year old man comes to the physician because of a six-week history of poor urinary stream and inability to void completely. Physical examination shows a markedly enlarged prostate. The diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia is made. Between which of the following regions of the urethra is obstruction of urine flow most likely located in this patient? The bladder neck and the membranous urethra The membranous urethra and the proximal bulb of the penis The peritoneal membrane and the levator ani The proximal bulb of the penis and the perineal membrane The trigone and the internal urethral orifice
