Bowmans Capsule Blood is transported into
the Bowman's capsulefrom the afferentarteriole Within thecapsule, the blood is
filtered through theglomerulus and thenpasses out via theefferent arteriole.
Meanwhile, the filteredwater and aqueouswastes are passed out ofthe Bowman's capsule
into the proximal

Loop of Henle
This long tubulereabsorbs a lot of theremaining electrolyteselectrolytes (Elementsin the blood, such aspotassium and sodium)and water from theurine that remains afterleaving the proximal
tubule. It is alsoimportant in helping todilute or concentratethe urine later on.

Collecting Tube Collecting ducts run
through the medullaand are surroundedby loops of Henl.The liquid in the
collecting ducts (ultra-filtrate) is turned intourine as water andsalts are removed
from it. It is called acollecting ductbecause it collects theliquid produced by
lots of nephrons.

The Liver
The liver is a vital part of the excretory
system, and the human body. It regulates
glycogen storage, plasma protein synthesis,
and drug detoxification. The liver secretesbile, a base used for breaking down fats.
Therefore, it helps get rid of unneeded wastes
in the body. It changes toxic ammonia, which
is a poisonous gas , to urea, a harmless fluid.The kidney filters urea(a mix of sugar and
waste) into a liquid called urine. The liver is
the largest gland in the body.

Kidneys
The outer portion of the
kidney is called the
RENAL CORTEX and
the middle would bethe RENAL
MEDULLA and the
innermost part is the
RENAL PELVIS

Kidney Disorders
Kidney Cancer.
In adults, the most
common type of
kidney cancer is renalcell carcinoma, which
begins in the cells
that line the small
tubes within yourkidneys.

Kidney Treatments
Kidney Dialysis
Dialysis treatmentreplaces the function ofthe kidneys, whichnormally serve as thebody's natural filtrationsystem. The treatmentremoves waste productsand excess fluids fromthe bloodstream, while
maintaining the properchemical balance of theblood. There are 2 typesof dialysis ..

Kidney Treatments
The first treatmentinvolves circulating thepatient's blood outside ofthe body A filter known as
a dialyzer (artificialkidney), and a dialysismachine that monitorsand maintains blood flowand administers
dialysate. Dialysate is achemical bath that isused to draw wasteproducts out of the blood.

Kidney Treatments
The second type: A catheter issurgically inserted into thepatient's abdomen. Duringtreatment, the catheter is usedto fill the abdominal cavity with
dialysate. Waste products andexcess fluids move from thepatient's bloodstream into thedialysate solution. After awaiting period of six to 24hours, depending on the
treatment method used, thewaste-filled dialysate isdrained from the abdomen andreplaced with clean dialysate.

Kidney Transplant
Kidney
transplantation or
renaltransplantation is
the organ transplant
of a kidney either
from a living donor ora cadaver.
