Question
1. Mark the following statements as true or false. If a statement is false, correct it to make a true statement. A. The kidneys are retroperitoneal and covered by three layers of connective tissue. B. Internally, the kidneys consist of an outer renal medulla, a middle renal pelvis, and an inner renal cortex C. The first capillary bed of the kidneys is the peritubular capillaries, which are fed by the afferent arteriole and drained by the efferent arteriole. D. Filtrate flows from the renal corpuscle to the distal tubule, the nephron loop, the proximal tubule, and into the 2. Write the words that complete the sentences in the spaces. The accumulation of ___1_ stretches the urinary bladder wall, which triggers the -2- reflex. This reflex causes rhythmic involuntary contractions of the 3-muscle and opens the involuntarly controlled 4-urethral sphincter. If the voluntarily controlled-_s_-urethral sphincter is relaxed,6 occurs. 3. Describe the five functions of the renal and urinary systems collecting system.Explanation / Answer
Hi, as per our regulation, the first full question is answered. Please get back in comments for any queries.
A. True. The three layers are renal capsule, adipose capsule and renal fascia.
B. False. The kindney has 3 major regions internally. there are: outer Renal cortex, renal medulla and intenal renal pelvis.
C. False. the peritubular capillaries are the tiny blood vessels which are fed by only efferent arteriole. They wrap around the tubules of nephron.They are not fed by afferent arteriole.
D. False. The process of filtration begins in the glomerular capsule. It enters capillary epithelium, lamina densa nd glomerular epithelium. From there it passes through proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal tubule and finally into collecting system.
