II: Lab 8 Exam Questions with Verified
Answers
The two body systems described together as the urogenital system are: -
ANSWERSReproductive and Urinary
Urine that has a sweet odor is indicative of: - ANSWERSDiabetes
The most abundant solute in urine is: - ANSWERSUrea
A person produces 1.5 liters of urine a day. This is called: - ANSWERSNormal urine
output
A lab technician finds large amounts of glucose in a urine sample. Is this normal or
abnormal? If abnormal, explain the problem this finding indicates. -
ANSWERSAbnormal; Large amounts are not normal in a urine sample. If found, it is
indication of diabetes, as diabetics commonly show glucose in the urine. They lack
insulin to carry glucose to the tissues, so glucose stays in the blood and must be
eliminated through the urine.
A lab technician finds renal colliculi in a urine sample. Is this normal or abnormal? If
abnormal, explain the problem this finding indicates. - ANSWERSAbnormal; If found, it
is indication of kidney stones. There is an overabundance of calcium/ phosphate salts
and crystals in the blood that need to pass through into urine.
Which letter above (A, B, C or D) best shows the medial surface of the kidney? -
ANSWERSA
Identify the structure above (indicated by the arrow) and discuss its purpose. -
ANSWERSUreter: The renal pelvis drains urine into the ureter to bladder.
Identify the structure above (identified by pin A, B, C, D or E) that drains filtrate from a
major calyx. - ANSWERSA (Renal pelvis)
You are doing a visual examination of a sample of urine (above) in the lab. Is this a
normal sample of urine? Explain. - ANSWERSAbnormal:● Color-Dark amber/orange●
Clarity- Cloudy
Next, after testing the urine sample (above) you got obtained a result of 1.02. Is this
normal? - ANSWERSYes- this is within normal range for specific gravity.
