As the glomerular filtrate passes through the renal tubules, it undergoes reabsorption of water, ions, and nutrients back into the bloodstream. Waste products and excess substances that were not reabsorbed are left behind and eventually become urine. The final urine then passes through the ureter into the bladder for storage and eventual elimination.

What is the concave side of kidney?
The concave side of the kidney is known as the hilum, where the renal artery, renal vein, ureter, and other structures enter and exit the kidney.
What are the ureter main functions?
The main function of the ureters is to transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder for storage and eventual elimination from the body. These narrow tubes use peristaltic contractions to move urine downward against gravity. They also prevent backflow of urine from the bladder to the kidneys to maintain proper flow direction.
What is manometric studies?
Manometric studies are diagnostic tests used to measure pressure within different parts of the gastrointestinal tract, typically to evaluate how well the muscles and nerves are functioning in that area. These studies help in diagnosing conditions such as esophageal motility disorders, achalasia, and sphincter dysfunction. During the test, a thin tube with pressure sensors is inserted through the nose or mouth into the digestive system to record and analyze the pressure readings.
How do kindneys work?
the kidneys are made up of medulla and the cortex. the cortex is the lighter exterior, while the medulla is an area made up of feathery like structures closer to the center which are attached to the ureter. Inside the kidneys are millions of nephrons which filter the blood. they do this by having blood build up a high pressure in the glomerulus ( a ball of capillaries) so that the small molecules ( water,glucose,etc) are forced thorugh into the bowman's capsule while the blood cells and proteins stay, as they are too big to be filtered. :)
What structure conveys the processed filtrate urine to the renal pelvis?
ureter
What part does not contain fully formed urine urinary bladder urethra ureter renal pelvis glomerular capsule?
The glomerular capsule does not contain fully-formed urine.

What passes through the ureter?
Urine. That is the tube that connect the bladder to the outside of the body.
What is The relation of ureter to broad ligament?
The ureter passes under the broad ligament in female anatomy. Specifically, the ureter runs posterior to the broad ligament before entering the trigone of the bladder. This close proximity underscores the importance of being mindful of the ureter during gynecologic surgeries to prevent inadvertent injury.
How does ammonia become urine?
the twokidneys having inside nephrons the blood passes into that and the pure blood will change as urine and come through two urethra ,gall bladder , ureter and passes through anus
What is upper ureter and middle ureter and lower ureter and juexavesical ureter?
upper third: from renal pelvis to the top edge of the sacrummiddle third: from the top edge to the lower edge of the sacrumdistal third: lower edge of the sacrum to the urinary bladder
Do nephrons form urine?
Blood is filtered through the bowmans capsule (large proteins are left in the bloodstream). The fluid that remains in the nephron after filtration is called the filtrate.The filtrate enters the proximal tubule. Glucose, amino acids, and water are secreted (released into bloodstream). The filtrate begins to darken with less water in it.The filtrate then moves on to the Loop of Henle. On descent, water leaves the filtrate by osmosis and on ascent; sodium and chloride leave the filtrate by active transport. This is necessary to produce concentrated urine. The loop of henle becomes less permeable as it goes ascends so less sodium and chloride leave the filtrate as the filtrate makes its way up the loop.The filtrate then moves on to the Distal Tubule where pH is regulated and sodium potassium, and calcium levels are controlled. The filtrate becomes more concentrated here.The filtrate then moves into the Collecting Duct. The collecting duct is what connects the nephrons to the ureter. It participates in electrolyte and fluid balance through reabsorption and excretion.(I did this for a Grade 12 Biology lab so this is just a collection of stuff I got off the internet from various good sources! anybody else who was just as confused as I was when I got this question!)
How much of the fluid that comprises filtrate is reabsorbtion into the bloodstream?
Most filtrate is reabsorbed. Remember, just about everything other than cells and large proteins is filtered into Bowman's capusle, and your body needs most of it, or else all you would have running through your blood are cells and proteins. The kidneys reabsorb most of the water, ions and nutrients in the filtrate.
What structure conveys urine to the renal pelvis?
bowman's capsule. The collecting duct found in Bowman's Capsule passes the urine to the renal pelvis, which is drained by the ureter
What part carries waste from the kidney to the bladder?
The ureter.
Area of the kidney from which ureters exit?
The area of the kidney from which the ureters exit is called the renal pelvis. It is a funnel-shaped structure that collects urine from the kidney's collecting ducts before it passes through the ureters into the bladder.
