Anatomy

1. heme derived pigment that imparts the typical yellow color of urine
3. cortex Outer part of kidney containing all the nephrons; some nephronshave loops of Henle extending into the medulla
7. finger_ like projection of podocytes surrounding glomenular capillaries;interdigited to form a filtration membrane
8. compound that increases urine output, leading to decreased waterconcentration
9. The inner wall of the glomerular capsule is made up of
11. Tuft of capillaries surrounded by Bowman’s capsule; filters the bloodbased on size
12. the absence of urine produced, production of 50 mL, or less per day
14. Consist of glomerulus and Bowman's capsule
16. enzyme produced by juxtaglomenular cells in response to decrease bloodpressure or sympathetic nervous activity.
18. Extensions of the renal cortex into the renal medulla; separatesthe renal pyramids; contains blood vessels and connective tissue
19. are also called urination or holding

2. Cup-like structures receiving urine from the collecting duct here it passesonto the renal pelvis and ureter
4. presence of glucose in the urine, caused by high blood glucose levelsthat exceed the ability of the kidneys to reabsorb the glucose.
5. Functional units of the kidney that carry out all filtrations andmodification to produce urine
6. Inner region of kidney containing the renal pyramids
10. Contractile cells found in the glomerulus, can contract or relax toregulate filtration rate
13. The mucosa of the urinary bladder contains transitional epithelium andmucosal folds
15. Analysis of urine to diagnose disease
17. descending and ascending portion between proximal and distalconvoluted tubule; those of cortical nephrons do not extend into the medulla;whereas those of juxtaglomedullary nephrons do extend into the medulla
20. Transports urine from bladder to the outside environment
