This document discusses kidney physiology and body fluid regulation. It covers several topics:
1. The kidneys regulate body fluid osmolality and volume, electrolyte balance, acid-base balance, and excretion of waste products and hormones.
2. Body fluid is composed of intracellular fluid (ICF), extracellular fluid (ECF), plasma, and interstitial fluid. Fluid moves between compartments through capillary exchange and cellular osmosis.
3. The kidneys maintain fluid homeostasis by regulating sodium and water reabsorption and excretion. Hormones like angiotensin, aldosterone, and ADH influence renal blood flow and sodium handling.

Urinalysis Hands on Lab Assignment
Introduction:
The million nephrons in each of your kidneys form urine and which allows the body to get rid of metabolic wastes from blood and maintain homeostasis by regulating blood pH, water volume and ion concentrations in blood. Urinalysis is a standard test that can determine if the urine formation is normal or abnormal. In doing this lab we can determine the volume of urine, chemical and physical properties, and microscopic composition along with levels of some metabolic waste materials in blood.
Pre-activity
There are three processes for making urine, glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption, and tubular secretion. Below, for each of the processes below, define them and describe where they occur in the nephron.
1. Glomerular Filtration
2. Tubular Reabsorption
3. Tubular Secretion
Activity 1: The Nephron
Make a hand drawn picture of the nephron, make sure to include all of the structures and information listed below.
A. Renal corpuscle
B. Renal tubule
C. Location of glomerular filtration
D. Location and directional arrow of tubular reabsorption
E. Location and directional arrow of tubular secretion
F. Proximal convoluted tubule
G. Distal convoluted tubule
H. Glomerular capsule (Bowman’s capsule)

Activity 2: Renal Reabsorption and Secretion
Using pages 970-988 in your lecture book and these videos Urinary System 1 (opens window) and Urinary System 2 (opens window) use the table below to predict the difference in osmolarity between the filtrate in the glomerular capsule and the other regions of the nephron. Will it be higher, lower, the same as, or dependent on hormones? For example, looking at the first structure in the table, does the filtrate found at the beginning of the proximal convoluted tubule have a higher/lower/same as the filtrate found in the glomerular capsule or does it depend on the hormones present?

Each kidney contains over 1 million tiny structures called nephrons. Each nephron has a glomerulus, the site of blood filtration. The glomerulus is a network of capillaries surrounded by a cuplike structure, the glomerular capsule (or Bowman’s capsule). As blood flows through the glomerulus, blood pressure pushes water and solutes from the capillaries into the capsule through a filtration membrane. This glomerular filtration begins the urine formation process.Inside the glomerulus, blood pressure pushes fluid from capillaries into the glomerular capsule through a specialized layer of cells. This layer, the filtration membrane, allows water and small solutes to pass but blocks blood cells and large proteins. Those components remain in the bloodstream. The filtrate (the fluid that has passed through the membrane) flows from the glomerular capsule further into the nephron.The glomerulus filters water and small solutes out of the bloodstream. The resulting filtrate contains waste, but also other substances the body needs: essential ions, glucose, amino acids, and smaller proteins. When the filtrate exits the glomerulus, it flows into a duct in the nephron called the renal tubule. As it moves, the needed substances and some water are reabsorbed through the tube wall into adjacent capillaries. This reabsorption of vital nutrients from the filtrate is the second step in urine creation.The filtrate absorbed in the glomerulus flows through the renal tubule, where nutrients and water are reabsorbed into capillaries. At the same time, waste ions and hydrogen ions pass from the capillaries into the renal tubule. This process is called secretion. The secreted ions combine with the remaining filtrate and become urine. The urine flows out of the nephron tubule into a collecting duct. It passes out of the kidney through the renal pelvis, into the ureter, and down to the bladder.The nephrons of the kidneys process blood and create urine through a process of filtration, reabsorption, and secretion. Urine is about 95% water and 5% waste products. Nitrogenous wastes excreted in urine include urea, creatinine, ammonia, and uric acid. Ions such as sodium, potassium, hydrogen, and calcium are also excreted
This presentation highlights on the introduction, classification, structures, SAR and mechanism of action of different Diuretics. Pharmacy students will be benefited by this content.
