absorption of ions, organic molecules, vitamins, and water
Blood entering the kidney is filtered of cells and large proteins . The filtrate enters the tubules and an exchange of ions (sodium, potassium, calcium) takes place and water is retained (which concentrates the urine). The tubules act in part as a counter-current exchange system to remove hydrogen ions from the body.
connects your kidney to your bladder
Excretion of the body waste, electrolytes, and water in the proximal renal tubule and reabsorption of water and electrolytes in the distal renal tubule. Medications and poison substances are also excreted here. Creatinine and uric acid are also excreted here. The main function is to maintain the internal hemostasis of the body. Selection of good stuff (nutrients) and bad stuff (waste materials), filtration, movement to fluid
The renal pelvis is the dilated portion of the ureters that collects the urine.After the urine flows down the bladder. It is the place of some types of cancers.
They are part of the nephrons and they play a role in urine filtration.
The renal pelvis collects urine filtrate from the collecting tubules.
The tissue found in the renal pelvis is modified to carry out its function. It consists of ducts that secrete and collect water which act as a funnel.
Renal pelvis acts as the funnel, so that urine can flow to the ureter
The renal pelvis is in the kidney.
The renal pelvis and renal calculi are not the same. The renal pelvis is a normal part of the body. Renal calculi are kidney stones and are not normal.
