P4 – Explain the role of the kidney in the homeostatic control of fluid balance Homeostasis is how our body works to keep the internal environment constant. The kidneys play a role in the control of fluid balance. For this assignment I will be discussing the gross anatomy of the renal system and the kidney. Renal System The renal system is a group of organs that work together to produce‚ store‚ and release urine. It consists of 2 kidneys‚ ureters‚ the urinary bladder‚ urethra and renal vessels which

natural phenomenon that always occurs at the open channel flow like river and spillway. This phenomenon occurred when a high velocity liquid discharge into a zone with a lower velocity of water that doesn’t have a slope steep enough to maintain the supercritical flow(high velocity liquid). The results‚ an abrupt rise occurred in the liquid surface. The rapidly flowing liquid will abruptly slowed and increase in height. This will converting the flow’s kinetic energy into potential energy‚ with some energy

The experimental apparatus is a set of 2 fluid reservoirs connected by a “blood vessel”. It is possible to vary the values of blood pressure‚ blood viscosity‚ vessel length and vessel radius by clicking on the + and – buttons next to those parameters. Once your values have been chosen‚ you can
