Document Summary
Renen angeotensin system-- regulates bp and fluid balance. Na, cl, k, ca, hpo,4, mg c. ph of arterial blood i. Skin, liver, and lungs can rid body of waste, but kidneys are major and cannot compensate upon compensation. Minor: papillae extend into funnel of minor calyx. Where the urine ends up and then goes out through the ureter. Movement of fluid derived form blood across membrane. Gfr= glomerular filtration rate= the amount of filtrate produced/ minute. Rate determined by filtration pressure and renal blood flow duh. Issue with blood flow= issue with rate= kidney failure. Juxtaglomerular apparatus senses blood osmolality and secretes renin when its low. Juxtaglomerular apparatus: consist of cells from the wall of the afferent arteriole. Occurs as filtrate flows through the lumens of proximal tubule, loop if henle, distal tubule, and collecting ducts. Substances transported to interstitial fluid and reabsorbed into peritubular capillaries. Other ions to follow (cl, ca2+, mg+, k+)
