Urinary System

5. Triangular region of the bladder base (3 openings)
7. Limb of the loop of henle that is permeable to water with no transport of ions
10. Urethral sphincter under voluntary (skeletal muscle) control
11. Causes sodium retention
13. Used to measure renal plasma flow rate
16. causes sodium excretion
17. Region where most reabsorption occurs
19. Formulates the concurrent multiplier
20. Arterioles receives blood that has passed through the glomerulus

1. Used to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR)
2. Nephrons that are responsible for producing concentrated urine
3. Limb of the loop of henle that is impermeable to water with transport of ions
4. Helps control calcium homeostasis
6. Nephrons that are found in the cortex AKA the majority of nephrons
8. Give structural integrity to glomerulus, which is under very high pressure
9. Where filtration occurs
12. Causes water retention
14. Stimulates aldosterone and ADH release
15. Urethral sphincter under involuntary (smooth muscle) control
18. Arterioles that arises from cortical radiate artery & feeds the glomerulus
