with the following terms:
Cortex, Medulla, Pelvis,
renal artery, renal vein,
ureter, nephron
functional unit of the nephron
kidney 1 million per kidney!
Renal corpuscle
Renal tubule
What parts make up the Glomerulus (capillaries that filter the blood plasma)
nephron? Bowman's capsule (surrounds the glomerulus)
Efferent arteriole
loop of henle
What is the glomerulus capillaries
made of?
Function of a nephron filter blood and produce urine
Two nephron types juxtamedullary and cortical
-Long nephron loops deeply invade medulla
-Ascending limbs have thick and thin segments
juxtamedullary nephrons
-Important in production of concentrated urine
-found at the boundary of the cortex and medulla
-85% of all nephrons
-short nephron loops
cortical nephrons
-efferent arterioles branch into peritubular
capillaries around PCT and DCT

into the blood.

kidney? corpuscle
3.)secretion
4.)filtration
