1) Functions of the Kidney are to ______toxins, ______wastes, and excess _____ to urine, and also to maintain ______by regulating ______and ______makeup of the blood. There are 3 processes for making urine, ______, ______, and______.

**2) The kidneys location is referred to as______. And the ______is the location where the______, renal blood vessels______, and nerves ______and exit.

**3) In internal kidney anatomy the light colored granular ______region is referred to as the ______, while the tubular ______region is referred to as the ______which contains ______which are the parallel bundles of urine-______and ______tubules that drain urine through the papillae to the ______(calyx) which drain into the renal ______to the ______to the urinary ______and finally through the ______to outside the body.

4)The structural and ______units of kidney are the______, and the blood is ______in the renal ______which is made up of the ______and the glomerulus______, also referred to as the ______capsule.

5) The renal or ______corpuscle has two layers, the external ______layer which is composed of simple ______epithelium which is the______, and the ______layer which is modified simple ______epithelium, with branching epithelial ______with filtration ______that have openings between foot processes of podocytes allow filtrate to pass through the ______endothelium, which is ______endothelium which filters blood and allows solute-rich and virtually ______-free filtrate to pass from ______into glomerular capsule______.

7) There are two nephron types, majority being the ______nephrons located mostly in ______which produce ______urine, while the ______nephrons have their glomerulus located near ______-______junction and their Loops of______dip deeply into ______with extensive thin segments and produce ______urine.

8) Every nephron has two capillary beds, the ______and ______capillaries. Each glomerulus is fed by an______arteriole and then drained by an ______arteriole which are ______than the afferent. The afferent are ______to accommodate the ______blood pressure so fluids and solutes are______fromblood through the______.

9) Peritubular capillary beds are under______-pressure and are______capillaries adapted for ______they arise from ______arterioles, cling to adjacent renal ______and empty into renal ______system.

10) Filtrate contains no______but does contain all ______components except______. Water, ______, and essential ______are reabsorbed as filtrate and become ______which contains water, ______wastes, and unneeded substances.

11) Ureters have a______wall of ______epithelial mucosa, ______muscle muscularis and fibrous connective tissue______. The ureters actively propel urine to bladder via ______at intervals of 3to 4 minutes. Ureters enter bladder base through the______wall and their ______ends close as bladder pressure ______which prevents______of urine into ureters.

12) At the base of the urinary bladder is where the ______is located, which is a ______area outlined by the openings for______and______, this is clinically important because ______tend to persist here when the bladder does not ______-completely.

13) Bladder wall is composed of ______epithelial mucosa, which is shed into the ______when there is urinary tract______. The ______muscle is thick ______muscle layer which ______when you urinate forcefully and fibrous ______.

14) Internal urethral sphincter is ______muscle under ______control and is located at bladder-______junction. The external urethral sphincter is______muscle under______control, this sphincter ______the urethra as it passes through ______diaphragm. The ______muscle of pelvic floor is the second ______urethralsphincter.

15) In the male urethra the prostatic urethra runs within ______gland, the ______urethra runs through urogenital diaphragm, and the ______penile urethra passes through the______and opens via externalurethral orifice.

16) The kidneys develop from ______as ureteric buds and in pouching of______forms the______.
