The kidneys are concerned with urine production, which is done to to regulate the contents of the internal environment. The functional unit of the kidney is called the nephron. At the start of the nephron is a structure called Bowman capsure. This structure takes the filtrates out of the blood from a convoluted cappillary network called the glomerulus. Very much of the contents of the plasma is filtered, only leaving Red Blood Cells and plasma proteins which are both to big to be filtered. As the filtrate passes along the nephron most of its contents are removed back into the blood. The contorl of what is in the urinr comes mostly from this reabsorption, not the initial filtration, and it might be interesting to note that up to 50% of the urea is reabsorbed back into the blood not all goes into the urine.
so in a nutshell ? can someone please make this more general ???
Plasma proteins, cells and platelets are too large to pass through the membrane; they remain in the blood. :D
The urinary system includes the kidneys, urethra, bladder.
Everything inside the cell except the nucleus is part of the cytoplasm. The cytoplasm includes organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, and ribosomes, as well as cytosol, which is the fluid that surrounds the organelles.
Renal fascia is not part of the filtration membrane of the kidneys. The filtration membrane consists of the glomerular endothelium, podocytes, and the basement membrane, which together form the barrier that filters blood to form urine in the kidneys. Renal fascia is a layer of connective tissue that surrounds the kidney and helps support it in place.
Everything in the kitchen sink would include various objects like dishes, utensils, and food scraps. The nucleus, as the central part of an atom, would not be found in a kitchen sink.
1. It enters through the cell wall. 2. It enters through the cell membrane. (Note that it enters through the cell wall's pores; and the cell membrane has to be semi-permeable) 3. Since water in the plant cell is stored in the vacuoles, the water enters the vacuole. There, the cell has gained more water. (When the cell releases water, it is the same sequence of steps except BACKWARDS) Hope my Answer helped -Rin Rin
Everything except mass, momentum, angular momentum and electric charge. These are the only properties that survive when matter enters a black hole, according to the "No-hair theorem".
