Obstructive uropathy involves the obstruction of urine flow as it exits from kidney toward bladder. Answer all of the following: What happens when urine backs up in kidney? What structure can pressure on tubules damage? When obstruction occurs is it typically unilateral or bilateral? Why or why not?
Pathophysiology: Obstructive uropathy involves the obstruction of urine flow as it exits from kidney toward bladder. Answer all of the following: What happens when urine backs up in kidney? What structure can pressure on tubules damage? When obstruction occurs is it typically unilateral or bilateral? Why or why not?
Kidney damage leads to protein in the urine. The amount of protein in the urine is directly related to the severity of kidney damage. Design a lab procedure for determining the amount of protein in a urine sample. Keep in mind that the maximum absorbance may not be 540nm due to interference created by the other components in a sample of urine.
Where in the kidney is urine formed? Which structure carries urine from the kidneys to the bladder?
1. Describe the formation of urine within a nephron (the functional unit of the kidney). Starting with the glomerulus provide an explanation for how plasma is filtered and concentrated to form urine. Be sure to describe both the structures that the filtrate travels through, and the processes that are occurring.
A condition of failure of kidney to form urine is called (a) anuria (b) deamination (c) uremia (d ) none of these.
Please assist me Briefly trace and discuss the flow of blood in the human kidney. Briefly identify the structure and trace the development of urine production in the human kidney.
