Trace the path a molecule of water will travel from the renal artery to the toilet bowl. Indicate the blood vessels, Nephron structures, Kidney structures the water molecule will travel through.

Expert Solution

Answer

Path for water molecule from renal artery :

Renal artery
Segmental artery
Interlobar artery
Arcuate artery
Interlobular artery
Afferent arteriole
Glomerlar capillaries
Bowman's capsule
Proximal convoluted tubule
Descending limb of Henle's loop
Ascending limb of Henle's loop
Distal convoluted tubule
Collecting duct
Renal papilla
Minor calyx
Major calyx
Renal pelvis
Ureters
Urinary bladder
Urethra
Urethral orifice Out of the body in toilet bowl

- The water molecule travels in blood through the renal artery and enters the kidney.
- It is filtered in glomerular capillaries and enters Bowman's capsule as filtrate.
- When filtrate enters terminal part of collecting duct is known as urine.
- From medullary region of kidney, urine enters renal papilla at the end of renal pyramid.
- Through the structures such as calyces and renal pelvis it runs through the tube called ureter into the bladder.
- Urethra transports urine out of the body.

Trace a molecule of urea from the arcuate artery to the point that it exits from the female urinary tract. This answer should be in complete sentences to describe the tubes and structures urea passes through, in order, to become urine, and to describe how urea end up leaving the body

Trace the path ofa molecule of lipid from the point of ingestion until it reaches the lumen of the right atrium of the heart (in circulation). Describe the anatomical structures this molecule passes on its journey (alimentary canal organs/regions/structures, accessory organs, valves, epithelial tissues, relevant transport vessels it passes through)

If a patient has renal artery stenosis (narrowing of the renal artery) due to atherosclerosis, what is the impact of this on GFR? Specifically, be sure to discuss the impact on the afferent and/or efferent arterioles as well as effects on hydrostatic and/or oncotic pressure.

1. Place the following in order (arising from the renal artery and ending at the glomerulus). Interlobar artery, interlobular artery, segmental artery, arcuate artery, afferent arteriole. 2. Know specifically what and where is the external urinary sphincter. 3. During urine production the following processes take place. Define them-for each process, what way are substances moving? Into or out of the filtrate): 1. filtration (also what is the pressure gradient) 2. reabsorption 3. secretion
