Chapter 19, Problem 10LTB
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The parts of the excretory system in the diagram.
Introduction:
The urinary system is also termed as renal system. Itconsists of kidney, bladder, urethra and ureter. The main function of this system is to eliminate the waste from the body, regulate blood pressure and volume, control electrolytes level and maintain the pH level of the blood.

1. Changes in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) as evidenced by changes in the volume and content of filtrate in the nephron are
detected by which cells? Select a letter [Select]
write at least five terminologies regarding the URINARY SYSTEM that you are already familiar with. Share also five "stock knowledge" in terms of sentences to the system.
label and draw an arrow if kidney, ureter, urinary bladder, cloaca, and vent is present in the picture.

- Label the urinary system. Give correct answer.arrow_forwardChoose all the correct statements. Step 1 of urine formation is filtration, where fluid leaves the glomerular capillaries and enters the kidney tubules. Step 2 of urine formation is reabsorption, where nutrients leave the kidney tubules and are returned to the blood. Anything that remains in the kidney tubules is the urine. ADH is a hormone that helps the water in the kidney tubules return to the blood stream. Urine is mostly composed of urea. It is normal to have protein in the urine. If the kidneys cause sodium to enter the urine, water will follow the sodium and will also leave the body and enter the urine. This is a way to lower blood pressure.
