Describe the structure of a human kidney

Question: Describe the structure of a human kidney with the help of a labelled diagram. Solution: The kidney is a reddish-brown coloured organ which is a bean-shaped located between the last thoracic and third lumbar vertebra near the abdominal cavity. The hilum is a notch which is present in the inner side of the kidney through which ureter, blood vessels and nerves enter. Columns of Bertini and an inner medulla divided into medullary pyramids projecting into the calyx which is inside the kidne...

The glomerular filtrate in the loop of Henle gets concentrated

Question: The glomerular filtrate in the loop of Henle gets concentrated in the descending and then gets diluted in the ascending limbs. Explain. Solution: Reabsorption is minimum in its ascending limb which plays a significant role in the maintenance of high osmolarity of medullary interstitial fluid. The descending limb of the loop of Henle is permeable to water but almost impermeable to electrolytes so water can flow out. This concentrates the filtrate as it moves down. The ascending limb all...

How does tubular secretion help in maintaining

Question: How does tubular secretion help in maintaining ionic and acid-base balance in body fluids? Solution: Tubular secretion is crucial as it helps in the maintenance of ionic balance in the body fluids. During urine formation, Proximal Convoluted Tubule maintains the pH and ionic balance of the body fluids by selective secretion. Distal Convoluted Tubule is where conditional reabsorption of sodium ions and water takes place and maintain the ionic balance and pH. Collecting Duct: From this l...

Explain briefly, micturition and disorders

Question: Explain briefly, micturition and disorders of the excretory system Solution: The functional unit of the kidney is nephron where the urine is formed and followed by the urinary bladder. The urine will be stored until a voluntary signal is given by the central nervous system. his signal stretched the urinary bladder as it gets filled with urine. In response, the stretch receptors on the bladder walls would now send signals to the CNS that passes on motor messages that would lead to contr...

Explain the mechanism of formation of

Question: Explain the mechanism of formation of concentrated urine in mammals. Solution: The Henles loop and vasa recta play an important role in the formation of concentrated urine. The transport of sodium chloride in the ascending limb of Henles loop results in an osmolar gradient. The creation of a hypertonic medulla is facilitated by the renal tubules and vasa recta in the following manner: There is an active absorption of urea that occurs from the collecting tubule. In the vasa recta, absor...

Comment upon the hormonal regulation

Question: Comment upon the hormonal regulation of selective reabsorption. Solution: Selective reabsorption is the process in which some molecules like glucose, ions and certain amino acids get reabsorbed from the filtrate as they pass through the neuron. ADH i.e. Antidiuretic hormone and ANF i.e. Atrial Natriuretic Factor are the hormones which monitor the function of the kidney. ADH functions as the facilitation of the reabsorption of water from DCT. The adrenal cortex is activated by Angiotens...

How have the terrestrial organisms adapted

Question: How have the terrestrial organisms adapted themselves for the conservation of water? Solution: The terrestrial mammals or even amphibians mainly excrete nitrogenous wastes in form of urea and hence are known as ureotelic organisms while reptiles, etc. excrete nitrogenous wastes in form of uric acid and hence are called uricotelic organisms. Thus this is how the conversion of ammonia to urea or uric acid has been the adaptation that the terrestrial organisms have gone through for conser...
