    URINARY SYSTEM Ján Líška DVM, PhD Institut of Histology and Embryology, Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University Urinary system • The kidneys are the organ with multiple functions: • filtration of the blood • excretion of metabolic waste products and related removal of toxins • maintenance blood volume • regulation of acid-base balance • regulation of fluid and electrolyte balance • production of the hormones The other components of urinary system are accessory. Their function is essentially in order to eliminate urine. Urinary system - anatomy • Kidney are located in the retroperitoneal space • The surface of the kidney is covered by a fibrous capsule of dense connective tissue. • This capsule is coated with adipose capsule. • Each kidney is attached to a ureter, which carries urine to the bladder and urine is discharged out through the urethra.

They posses papilla - having openings through which urine passes into the calyces.

The outer layer of the kidney is the cortex. It contains the major (upper) portion of the nephrons. The middle layer of the kidney is the medulla. It is composed of the triangular shaped pyramids and the renal columns. The pyramids contain the collecting tubules and loops of Henle, the lower portion of the nephrons. These tubules run nearly parallel to one another and give the pyramids a grain which leads to their points or papillae.

  • Pig Kidney Teacher Guide
    Pig Kidney Model Pig Kidney Teacher Guide Introduction: Pig kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs located on the dorsal side of the abdomen. One is located on the left side and the other on the right side. The kidneys are part of the urinary tract where blood is filtered and urine is produced. The kidneys are also important for emission and absorption of water in the body. Worksheet Guide: Materials needed: Pig Kidney Model, Pig Kidney Quick Start Guide, Pig Kidney Worksheet and Pig Kidney Worksheet Answer Key. Steps for using the Model with the Worksheet: Step 1: Have students study the location of the parts of the kidney using the Quick Start Guide and Model. Step 2: After using the Quick Start Guide to get an understanding of the parts of the kidney, hand out the Worksheet for students to complete. Step 3: See the Answer Key to correct the Worksheet. Key Terms and Definitions: Discuss and demonstrate the location and function of these parts on the Pig Kidney Model: Medulla: innermost part of the kidney Renal vein: vein that carries blood to each kidney Renal artery: artery that carries blood away from the kidneys Ureter: carries urine to the bladder Cortex: where ultrafiltration occurs Renal column: extension of the renal cortex, giving anchor to the cortex Pyramid: cone-shaped tissues of the kidney that transport urine from the outer part of the kidney to where it passes through the ureter Papillae: located at the apex of the pyramids, they open and drain into the renal pelvis Renal pelvis: act as a funnel for urine flowing to the ureter Pig Kidney Model Name: ___________________________ Class: ___________________________ Pig Kidney Worksheet Introduction: Pig kidneys are a pair of kidneys that are located on the dorsal side of the abdomen.
