    The physiological overview involves the kidneys processing blood by eliminating any excess mineral salts, urea and water as this provides homeostasis and it enables the body to work effectively. The nephron (which is part of the kidneys) for example, is in charge of the reabsorption of amino acids, glucose, some chloride and sodium. It is composed of the Bowman’s capsule which is connected to a coiled tubule, which then moves into a hairpin loop called the loop of Henle. There is also a straight collecting duct and second loop that clears out at the end of the pyramid. Both the collecting duct and loop of Henle are located in the medulla.…

    Medial to the hilum is a flat, basin like cavity, and the renal pelvis. The pelvis is continuous with the ureter living the hilum. Extensions of the pelvis, calyces, form cup-shaped areas that enclose the tips of the pyramids. The calyces collect urine, which continuously drains from the tips of the pyramids into the renal pelvis. Urine then flows from the…

    The glomerulus is a globular network of capillaries surrounded by Bowman’s capsule. Filtration occurs under pressure through the fenestrations in the capillary wall and through gaps between the podocytes of the Bowman’s capsule into the Bowman’s space. The filtrate passes into the proximal convoluted tubule which is the longest and most convoluted part of the renal tubule where 65% of ions and water is reabsorbed. Next the filtrate travels through the loop of Henle which is surrounded by the vasa recta capillaries. Here further absorption of NaCl occurs by the counter-current multiplier system (Young et al, 2006).…

    The distal parts of the tubules extract inorganic ions, uric acid and amino acids by active transport and water by diffusion from the surrounding haemolymph. The filtrate moves towards the ileum. In the proximal parts of the malpighian tubules water and other useful substances are reabsorbed. The remaining materials passes into the gut. More water and inorganic ions are reabsorbed in the gut. Almost solid uric acid, is finally eliminated with the faeces.…
