Movement of substances from tubules into URINE
secretion

Urethra
Movement of substances out of renal tubules into the BLOOD
reabsorption
Another word for pH being base or basic
Alkaline
pH of 4
Acidic
A person urinates involuntarily is called
Incontinence
Filtration begins in this area of the nephron
Renal Corpuscle
Hormone decreases the amount of water lost through urine
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
The area of the renal tubules where secretion occurs
Distal convoluted tubules
pH of 8
Alkaline or Base
No urine is being produced but bladder function is intact
Suppression
The two major areas for reabsorption in the renal tubules are
Proximal convoluted tubule and Descending Loop of Henle
This hormone increases BP and decreases urinary output by reabsorption of water
ADH-antidiuretic hormone
What kind of fluid is cytoplasm
Intracellular fluid
Which is more acidic venous or arterial blood?
Venous
Urine is produced but cannot be removed from the bladder
Retention
Name the 2 parts that make up a nephron
Renal corpuscles and renal tubules
The atrial natriuretic hormone (ANH) is produced and secreted by this organ.
The heart
This is inside the Bowman's capsule and is a ball of capillaries
Glomerulus
Two body systems that regulate pH
Respiratory and Urinary
This value is considered the normal reference range for Magnesium
1.3-2.1 mg/dL
Renal calculi inside the renal pelvis (funnel) will obstruct this
Ureter and urine flow
pH is the measure of this ion in a solution
Hydrogen
Fluid that surrounds epithelial skin cells
Interstitial fluid
This is a symptom of metabolic acidosis
Diarrhea
