What else can I help you with?
Do the renal tubules empty urine into the renal pelvis?
ureterurethra
Do the renal tubules empty urine into the renal medulla?
No, the renal tubules do not empty urine directly into the renal medulla. The renal tubules are responsible for reabsorbing water and other important substances from the filtrate, which eventually forms urine that is transported to the renal pelvis before draining into the ureter.
What is the central portion of the kidney that collects urine from the renal tubules called?
The renal pelvis or pyelum.
What is renal papilla?
The renal papilla is located in the kidneys. The function of the renal papilla is to store urine before it is excreted from the bladder. It contains part of the secreting tubules and the collecting tubules.
Distal convoluted tubules flow directly into what structures?
The structures that distal tubes flow into are the collecting ducts of the kidneys. The collecting ducts are small tubes through which urine flows into the renal pelvis.
What isa the function renal pelvis in excretory system?
The renal pelvis collects urine filtrate from the collecting tubules.
What does the medullla in the kidney do?
the renal medulla contains capillaries and urine forming tubules
What is the papillary duct and what do they empty in to?
Papillary ducts are narrow tubes in the kidney that merge to form the renal papilla. They empty urine into the renal calyces within the renal sinus.
What carries urine through the medulla of the kidney?
Urine is carried through the medulla of the kidney by structures called the renal tubules. These tubules are responsible for reabsorbing essential substances from the filtrate and concentrating urine before it is excreted from the body.
Where is urine excreted in the kidney?
excretion of urine does not occur in kidneys. Urea and wastes and urine are filtered in the renal corpuscle of the nephron tubule in the kidney. The wastes that are secreted into the tubules and not reabsorbed travel down tubules to urethra and excreted outside of body by urination.
Do casts come from the tubules the calyces or the ureters?
Casts are formed in the distal convoluted tubules and collecting ducts of the nephron in the kidney. They are made up of protein or cellular material that becomes trapped in the renal tubules and is then washed out into the urine, where they can be detected.
In the kidney the ducts from the nephrons empty immediately into the?
The collecting ducts from the nephrons empty immediately into the renal pelvis or pyelum. The renal pelvis is part of the ureter that collects urine.
