What are the 3 steps for urine formation?
Filtration As blood courses through the glomeruli, much of its fluid, containing both useful chemicals and dissolved waste materials, soaks out of the blood through the membranes (by osmosis and diffusion) where it is filtered and then flows into the Bowman's capsule. This process is called glomerular filtration Reabsorption by definition, is the movement of substances out of the renal tubules back into the blood capillaries located around the tubules (called the peritubular copillaries). Substances reabsorbed are water, glucose and other nutrients, and sodium (Na+) and other ions Secretion In this respect, secretion is reabsorption in reverse. Whereas reabsorption moves substances out of the tubules and into the blood, secretion moves substances out of the blood and into the tubules where they mix with the water and other wastes and are converted into urine.
What is the movement of the blood?
The movement of blood is called circulation.
What is tubular kidney disease?
Tubular kidney disease-- Disease of the kidney that affect the tubules, the part of the kidney that allows certain substances to be reabsorbed back into the blood
What do you called the movement of the blood as it carries food and oxygen to the cell body?
The movement of the blood is called circulation.
What are the fatty substances in the blood called?
Cholesterols.
How does low blood pressure effect the flow of fluid through the renal tubules?
Low blood pressure means the blood flow through the circulation system has been delayed. As a result, blood flow goes through the Renal tubules will be effected. Blood goes through that tube won't be much. Hence, Blood will be slowed when it passes by the renal tubules.
What are the three phases involved in Formation of urine in kidney tubules?
The three phases involved in the formation of urine in the kidney tubules are : 1.Simple filtration- large molecules like blood cells and plasma proteins are unable to filter through the first part of the tubules and so stay in the blood. 2.Selective reabsorption- this is where those substances needed by the body, like sodium potassium ,are reabsorbed in the kidney to maintain the correct amount of fluid and substances. 3.Secretion- substances that are not required by the body and foreign materials, like drugs, are then secreted from the blood into the urine.
What is the difference between a grasshopper Digestive system and human?
Grasshoppers only have one intestine, whereas we have a large and small. Also, grasshoppers have something called tubules instead of kidneys to clean their blood.

Arteries.
