The urinary system includes the kidneys, the ureters which join the kidneys to the bladder, the bladder itself and the urethras which permit urine collecting in the bladder to be excreted - a process termed micturition. Understanding the physiology of kidney function is key when looking at the diseases that occur in this organ, and the anatomy of all the structures within the urinary sytem is significant as a foundation to understanding the pathology which affects them.

Even though you probably don't choose to spend a lot of time thinking about it, your pee is kind of a big deal. Today we're talking about the anatomy of your urinary system, and how your kidneys filter metabolic waste and balance salt and water concentrations in the blood. We'll cover how nephrons use glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption, and tubular secretion to reabsorb water and nutrients back into the blood, and make urine with the leftovers.

As we promised last week, we're not quite done talking about your pee yet. Today Hank explains how the urinary system regulates the production of urine, by maintaining a study glomerular flow rate. He'll also cover the anatomy of storing and excreting urine -- from the ureters to the urethra -- and the nervous system’s role in controlling the act of urination.

In this activity students will use statistics and regression models to explore the effects of carbon dioxide on blood pH by measuring pH changes that occur over time as carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid. Physiological pH changes caused by exercise are also examined.

This lesson sought to engage students in data interpretation and to encourage critical thinking about neurophysiology in the context of temperature sensation. A family of receptors called Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) channels are activated in response to specific temperatures. Upon activation, TRP channels can trigger sensory neurons to signal the perception of temperature. In this lesson, that we have tested with nearly 1000 students in 12 class sections over four years, students worked in groups of three to identify a "mystery" TRP channel by interpreting five different sets of data. In this activity, we used an approach that we call Sequential Interpretation of Data in an Envelope (SIDE), where students sequentially analyze primary source-like data that are on folded pieces of paper in an envelope. Students analyzed data and hypothesized which TRP channel(s) might be their mystery TRP channel. Students then analyzed four additional sets of data from different experiments and revised their hypotheses about their mystery TRP channel after each experiment. There are four different mystery TRP channels so different groups of three students each analyzed different data and came to different conclusions. This lesson gave students the opportunity to analyze data from multiple experiments. We assessed learning through an in-class worksheet, which students completed as they interpreted each data set and a post-class homework assignment, which students completed online.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"Surgery may not be the only way to relieve the symptoms of adenomyosis – a condition where endometrial tissue, which normally forms the inner lining of the uterus, instead grows within the uterine muscle wall. Often managed with hysterectomy, the abnormal spread of this tissue can cause heavy menstrual bleeding and severe, debilitating pain. Although conservative treatments like hormone therapy can ease symptoms, many women with adenomyosis must choose between major, life-changing surgery or living with their symptoms. Now, researchers have shown that the minimally invasive procedure known as uterine artery embolization, or UAE, is a promising non-surgical treatment option. During UAE, a catheter is inserted into the groin and then guided to the uterine arteries , which supply blood to the uterus. Tiny plastic particles are then injected to block blood flow. Because healthy uterine tissue can readily recruit new blood vessels, it isn’t harmed by this blockage..."
The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

The Uterus is the organ of pregnancy as this is where implantation and development of the feotus occurs. The Uterus is the reproductive organ with the most species variations. These variations occur in both the anatomical types of uterus as well as the uterine horn appearance and endometrial linings.

The vagina constitutes the part of the female reproductive tract between the cervix and the vulva. With the vestibule and vulva, it is the copulatory organ and the birth canal. The hymen is the poorly developed, vestigial, mucosal folds at the junction of the vagina and vestibule.

Blood vessel formation is a combination of the following three processes: Vasculogenesis: the formation of blood vessels from endothelial progenitor cells; Angiogenesis: the sprouting of new capillaries from pre-existing vessels; and Arteriogenesis: the remodelling of newly formed or pre-existing vascular channels into larger and more muscular arterioles.

The hindlimb deep veins are very closely related to their respective arteries. Essentially the lay out of the veins is similar in all domestic species.

Ventilation is the movement of air into and out of the lungs. Air moves from high pressure to low pressure with the rate of flow being proportional to the pressure difference. As environmental pressure is generally constant, the respiratory system must change its internal pressure to maintain air flow. The lungs are not fixed to the thoracic wall, but follow the changing volume of the thoracic cavity thanks to the pleura.
