The kidneys do not transport substances in the way that blood vessels or the circulatory system do. Instead, they filter blood to remove waste products and excess substances, which are then excreted as urine. The kidneys also help regulate electrolyte balance, blood pressure, and fluid levels in the body. While they play a crucial role in processing and managing various substances, the actual transport occurs through the bloodstream and urinary tract.
What else can I help you with?
Do ureters transport urine from the liver?
No, the ureters transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder.
Is transport a function of the kidneys?
No, the Kidneys themselves act as filter systems for the blood to remove waste products the Ureters are the ducts that carry waste from the kidneys to the bladder.
What type of transport is used during glucose reabsorbtion?
Solutes are selectively moved from the glomular filtrate to the plasma by active transport in the kidney. This includes glucose. Your kidneys receive 20–25 percent of your total cardiac output. Normally about 1200 ml of blood flows through the kidneys each minute.
Nutrients are delivered from the intestines through the circulatory system to the cells by?
transport to the kidneys which send them to the cells in the body
How many tubes do you see protruding from kidney?
Typically, there are two main tubes that protrude from each kidney: the ureters. These tubes transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder. In addition, blood vessels such as the renal artery and renal vein also connect to the kidneys, but they are not considered tubes for urine transport.
What is a function of the ureter?
The Ureter(s) [there are two of them] carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder.
In order to move molecules in your kidney what does your body need?
Your body needs energy in the form of ATP to transport molecules in your kidneys. This energy is used by transport proteins to pump molecules across cell membranes and maintain the proper balance of ions and fluids in the body. Additionally, adequate hydration and blood flow are necessary to support the movement of molecules in the kidneys.
Which two organs does the ureter connect?
The kidneys connect the urinary system to the circulatory system. The circulatory system brings blood to the kidneys, which remove nitrogenous wastes and rebalance the blood's salt and water content. The kidneys then transport these wastes to the urinary bladder via the ureters.
What components does the renal system have?
The renal system includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. The kidneys filter the blood to remove waste and regulate fluid balance, while the ureters transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The bladder stores urine until it is expelled through the urethra during urination.
Nutrients in intestine are carry into body by what?
transport to the kidneys which send them to the cells in the body
What system makes urine?
The excretory system. When you drink something, the stomach absorbs the nutrients. Some of the waste gets put into the bloodstream, where it travels to the kidneys. The kidneys filter the blood and transport the waste through the ureters, and into the bladder. From there, the urine exits through the urethra.
What a physiological process in humans that utilizes either active transport or passive transport to generate a body function?
absorption of urea from bloodi only know one, i was hoping that someone could give some more. I know that the kidneys use active transport to absorb urea, and nitrogen from the blood. (Low concentration of urea, excess water etc. to a high concentration in the kidneys)
