A renal ____ is between two pyramids and contains blood vessels

Column

The renal ___ is composed of Bowman's capsule and the glomerulus

Nephritis

The basic histological and functional unit of the kidney

Nephron

Steroid hormone of the adrenal gland that causes the reabsorption of sodium ions in the DDT

Aldosterone

The ___ limb of Henle actively transports Na Cl to the interstitial fluid thus helping to maintain the concentration gradient of the medulla

Ascending

The phenomenon by which a mechanism within an organ or tissue maintains a constant blood flow through that part even though the arterial blood pressure varies

Autoregulation

As the solute particles in the solution increase in number so does the ___ of the solution increase

Osmolality

Abbr. for the tubule that is closes to the renal corpuscle

PCT

The renal fat ___ acts as a protector and shock absorber for kidney

Pad

The apex of the pyramid is called the renal ___

Papilla

The urine collects in the renal ___ before it enters the ureter

Pelvis

The name given to the capillaries that surround the DCT and PCT

Peritubular

Specialized cells that have pedicels extensions that form filtration slits in Bowman's capsule

Podocytes

The filtration ___ is calculated by subtracting the sum of opposing forces from hydrostatic pressure of the glomerulus

Pressure

65% of the filtrate is reabsorbed as it passes through the ___ convoluted tubule

Proximal

The part of the kidney medulla that contains the collecting ducts and loops of Henle

Pyramid

___ is the movement of substance from the filtrate back into the blood

Reabsorption

The portion of the cardiac output that goes to the kidney is called the __ fraction

Renal

Released from the juxta glomerulus apparatus when BP drops

Renin

Term used for the fact that the kidneys are behind the parietal peritoneum against the deep muscles of the back

Retroperitoneal

The active transport of a substance into the nephron tubule

Secretion

The pedicles of podocytes form filtration ___ in the filtration membrane

Slit

Parasympathetic nerve impulses causes the relaxing of the internal and external ___ muscles in the urethra

Sphincter

Kidney ___ are hard objects that are usually found in the pelvis of the kidney

Stones

The ___ arteriole is larger than the efferent arteriole

Afferent

The hormone secreted by the kidneys that controls RBC formation

Erythropoietin

The hormone necessary for the water reabsorption in the DCT

ADH

The organ the urine collects in before it leaves the body

Bladder

Abbr. for the tubule that is farthest from the renal corpuscle

DCT

The epithelium of this limb of the loop of Henle is thin and lacks microvilli and very permeable

Descending

Name of the smooth muscle that makes up the urinary bladder wall

Reabsorption is controlled by hormonal action on the ___ convoluted tubules

Distal

An increased production of the urine

Diuresis

A substance that causes an increased production of urine

Diuretic

The ___ arteriole (leads away from glomerulus) is smaller in diameter than the afferent arteriole thus increasing filtration pressure

Efferent

An inability to control urination and/or defecation reflexes

Incontinence

A polysaccharide used to calculate the glomerular filtrate rate
