This overview provides insights into the anatomy and function of the kidneys and their role in the excretory system. It covers critical components such as nephrons, the bladder, ureters, and urethra, and discusses disorders like nephritis and cystitis. We delve into how the kidneys filter blood, regulate waste output, and the average urinary metrics for healthy individuals. Learn about the essential processes behind urine formation and the implications of kidney-related diseases on overall health.
