Question
Chapter 25.2, Problem 3BYGO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The arrangement of the given structures from the most numerous to least numerous in the kidneys. The structures are glomeruli, major calyx, minor calyx, cortical radiate arteries, and interlobar arteries.
Introduction:
The function of the excretory system is to remove the waste of the body. It maintains the chemical composition of the body fluids by removing the unwanted components and maintaining the level of water and electrolytes in the body. Moreover, the level of water in the body is maintained by the excretory system.
