Whats the function of the kidney?

They filter the blood, and remove wastes which are diverted to the urinary bladder. In producing urine, the kidneys excrete wastes such as urea and ammonium; the kidneys also are responsible for the reabsorption of water, glucose, and amino acids.

The kidneys also produce hormones including calcitriol, renin, and erythropoietin.

the main function unit of the kidney is the nephron The kidneys regulate the body's fluid volume, mineral composition and acidity by excreting and reabsorbing water and inorganic electrolytes.

Is urine continuously formed by the kidney and is routed down the ureters to the bladder by the mechanisms of peristalsis to a storage organ called the bladder?

The kidney is referred to as an excretory organ because it excretes (1) METABOLIC wastes. It is also a major homeostatic organ because it maintains the electrolyte, (2) WATER, and (3) pH balance of the blood. Urine is continuously formed by the (4) KIDNEY and is routed down th (5) URETERS by the mechanism of (6) PERISTALSIS to a storage organ called the (7) URINARY BLADDER. Eventually, the urine is conducted to the body (8) EXTERIOR by the urethra. In the male, the urethra is (9) 15 centimeters long and transports both urine and (10) SEMEN. The female urethra is (11) 3-5 centimeters long and transports only urine. Voiding or emptying the bladder is called (12) URINATION or MICTURATION. Voiding has both voluntary and involuntary components., The voluntary sphincter is the (13) EXTERNAL sphincter. An inability to control this sphincter is reffered to as (14) URINARY INCONTINENCE.
I think you are referring to the Urinary Bladder.

How does Mercury damage the kidney permenantly?

Mercury is toxic. Once absorbed, by breathing (vapor), by contact through the skin, or by ingestion, mercury generally accumulates in the brain and in kidneys.

It is a very toxic metal, much more than lead, especially in the vaporous state.

Easily soluble in blood and fat, it quickly goes through cell membranes, and through the placentary barrier.

Once in blood, mercury is easily distributed through the membranes to the organs. Once in the cell, it turns into divalent ionic mercury (HG2+), a inorganic mercury form which is very reactive.

As a filter, the kidney retains the mercury (in the proximal tubul) and reabsorbs it.

If someone has lower than normal blood glucose levels does this mean that he can eat as many carbs as he wants?

No, it doesn't. Eating simple carbohydrates that the body quickly metabolizes results in a sharp rise in blood sugar levels which may cause the body to react swiftly and remove too much. Then there is a drop in blood sugar levels, making the person feel tired and weak. So, the right carbohydrates need to be eaten in order to maintain a stable level for a longer period of time. Learn about low-GI carbohydrates, which is a way of including the right balance of carbohydrates without triggering negative body reactions. In brief, the carbohydrates to avoid are potatoes, refined flours, products made from them, rice except basmati and doongara, and watermelon. There are many good substitutes, and if you do eat the high GI carbohydrates, also eat something low GI to ensure that your body is not left unfueled.

Will codiene and oxycodone show up the same on urine tests?

Codeine will show up on urinalyses as Heroin due to the fact that the liver metabolizes about 6 to 12% of the codeine to morphine. Heroin, which is the morphine molecule with two acetyl ethers instead of alcohol groups at the 6 and 3 positions, also metabolizes to morphine - in this case the conversion is far more rapid and very nearly complete - in just an hour or so virtually all of an injection of heroin will have been converted to morphine.

Oxycodone usually will not show up AS MORPHINE. However, it is usually tested for since it has become so very popular, especially in Appalachia. Also worth noting, those taking large doses of oxycodone can test positive for morphine since there is a liver metabolic pathway that does take (IIRC) about 1% or less of a dose of oxycodone to morphine.

Modern urinalyses cannot be fooled very easily. I would venture a guess and say the most likely way to "beat" a urine test would be to somehow smuggle a small quantity of drug-free, fresh, warm (37C/98F) urine in and have that tested. I don't really want to help you beat a drug test, so I'm not going to go further with that.

TL;DR
When it comes to opiates, urine tests are looking for addicts (people who take drugs every day without prescription). If you want to pass the test, stop taking drugs for a week (and don't smoke pot for much longer of course!) before you go in to pee. If you can't stop taking drugs for a week, the test is looking to catch you.

When ADH is produced what happens?

If there is too little water in the blood, the hypothalamus will detect this and more ADH (Anti-Diuretic Hormone) will be produced. The increase in ADH will cause an increase in the permeability of the collecting duct in the kidney and so more water is reabsorbed into the blood. :)

If you have a hernia is your inguinal region pain from an infected kidney in your lumbar region Explain where each of these regions is located?
