This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Urinary system, Loop of Henle ascends back up to the renal cortex and becomes the DCT, PCT takes up compounds body doesn't need like creatinine by receiving peritubular cells' Secretion, Loop of Henle descending and thin ascending limb solely permeable to Water, PCT which descends into renal cortex and becomes Loop of Henle, Sodium and other ions, which are pumped out to reinforce the osmolality gradient by Active Transport, Collecting Duct which, when the body is dehydrated, reabsorbs large quantities of water and produces concentrated urine using Aquaporins, Blood Pressure when low, granules of JG cells release Renin, Loop of Henle thick ascending limb solely permeable to Sodium, Nephron uses narrow capillaries and smooth muscle to maintain a constant, high Blood Pressure, Glomerulus in renal corpuscle of Nephron, Water which enters interstitial space and eventually the vasa recta along its osmolality gradient via Passive Transport, DCT is final site of water and ion reabsorption before merging with the Collecting Duct, Renin which raises systemic blood pressure by coupling with Angiotensin II, PCT which is the major site of water and nutrient Reabsorption, Active Transport After which, the osmolality gradient is restored by Chloride, Filtration after which, the filtrate passes from Bowman's capsule into PCT, Blood Pressure which is necessary to force water and ions out of blood into Bowman's capsule, and undergo blood Filtration, Aquaporins in its membrane, inserted by the hypothalamic hormone ADH

Urinary system reference
License Image The urinary system is composed of the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. Blood from the heart travels down the aorta where it enters the kidney via the renal arteries. The kidney acts as a filter and regulator, removing waste products (urea) and balancing glucose, electrolytes (salt, potassium and other minerals) and water levels …

Ureters: The ureters are thin tubes that connect the kidneys to the bladder. They transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder using peristaltic contractions. Urethra: The urethra is a tube that connects the bladder to the external environment. Its primary function is to allow the controlled release of urine from the body. In males, the urethra also serves as a passage for semen during ejaculation.

The kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra filter blood and remove waste from the body in the form of urine. The kidney filters the blood, making urine, which travels through the ureters to be stored in the bladder and finally expelled via the urethra.
