TOPIC: "Human Urinary System"
PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS 1 AND 2. THANK YOU!
1. Why are females more likely to contract bladder infections than males? Discuss the anatomical differences between the females and males, which may account for the prior being more at risk of urinary tract infections.
2. Generally, what types of molecules and in which direction (from blood to tubules or tubules to blood) do molecules move during each of the three processes involved in urine formation:
✓ glomerular filtration
✓ tubular reabsorption
✓ tubular secretion
Please make your understanding clear for the following terms by writing your answer provided below each medical term presented
compartment syndrome
nephrotic sediment
proprioception
pitting oedema
myasthenia gravis
renal osteodystrophy
orthostatic hypotension
haemorrhagic stroke
stable angina
acromegaly
This is a biopsy of a 73 year man , who is hypertensive and with BPH. Examination of his urine revealed microscopic hematuria. Based on this micrograph, what part of the kidney was affected? Describe the cells and tissues.
