The Urinary System
Paired kidneys
A ureter for each kidney
Urinary bladder

Functions
Filter blood Toxins Metabolic wastes Excess water Excess ions
Nitrogenous wastes from blood Urea Uric acid Creatinine
Regulate the balance of water and electrolytes, acids and bases

Collecting Duct
The most important role is to conserve body fluids
When the body must conserve water, the posterior pituitary gland secretes ADH (antidiuretic hormone)
ADH increases the permeability of the collecting tubules and distal tubules to water so more is reabsorbed
This decreases the total volume of urine
Alcohol inhibits the release of ADH, so less water is reabsorbed producing copious amounts of dilute urine (can cause dehydration)

Ureters
Slender tubes about 25 cm (10”) long leaving each renal pelvis
One for each kidney carrying urine to the bladder
Run medially within posterior bladder wall before opening into interior
This oblique entry helps prevent backflow of urine

Bladder
Collapsible muscular sac
Stores and expels urine
Lies on pelvic floor posterior to pubic symphysis Males: anterior to
rectum Females: just anterior
to the vagina and uterus

Urethra
Smooth muscle with inner mucosa Changes from transitional through stages to
stratified squamous near end Drains urine out of the bladder and body
Male: about 20 cm (8”) long
Female: 3-4 cm (1.5”) long Short length is why females have more urinary
tract infections than males - ascending bacteria from stool contamination
