  1. Formation of Urine

  2. What is urine? • Urine is made up of • water • Certain electrolytes • Various wastes that are filtered out of your bloodstream

  3. Where is urine made? • Urine is made in the nephrons! • there are ~ 1 million nephrons in each kidney • Urine formation is happening in all nephrons at the same time!

  4. Urine is formed through

  5. Glomerular Filtration • Water and dissolved substances are filtered OUT of blood and INTOnephron • This filtered fluid is called filtrate

  6. Filtration Afferent Arteriole Blood Glomerulus Filtration Filtrate enters Bowman’s Capsule

  7. Filtration • Blood enters the glomerulus – a high pressure filter • Dissolved solutes from blood enter Bowman’s capsule (due to pores in the glomerulus and the↑ blood pressure) Pg 451 Table 10.1 – what doesn’t enter BC?

  8. Tubular Reabsorption • Materials move out of the kidney tubules and back into blood Prevents substances needed by the body from being lost in the urine!

  9. Reabsorption • Selective reabsorption happens by active and passive transport 1 ml of urine is formed for every 120 ml of fluids that filter into the nephron! 119 ml are reabsorbed!

  10. Reabsorption • Occurs in proximal tubule (includes loop of Henle) and distal tubule • ATP drives the active transport of sodium ions, glucose, and other solutes back into the blood • Negatively charged ions follow the sodium ions passively • Water follows the ions by osmosis

  14. Reabsorption Ascending limb of Loop of Henle Pg 452 Fig.10.8

  15. Secretion • Movement of substances from the blood INTO the distal tubule What is secreted? • K+ by passive transport (attracted to chloride ions) • H+ by active transport (to maintain the pH of blood) • medications

  16. Water Reabsorption • Occurs in collecting duct • Passive reabsorption of water from the filtrate into the blood • Makes filtrate ~ 4X more concentrated • By the time filtrate exits the duct, it is about 1% of its original volume • Now called URINE

  17. Water Reabsorption • Reabsorption in the distal tubule and collecting duct is controlled by hormones *More on this later!
