Removing wastes – Respiration and urination Why we breathe All cells require a continuous supply of O2 and disposal of CO2 O2 CO 2 Environment Cell C6H12O6 Glucose Mechanics of Breathing 6 H2O ATP Water Energy Inhalation Breathing is the alternating process of: 6 O2 6 CO2 Cellular Oxygen respiration Carbon dioxide Air flows in Rib cage expands as rib muscles contract Inhaling Exhaling The diaphragm and rib muscles contract The diaphragm does most of the work Lung Rib cage expands Lung volume increases, causing air pressure to fall Diaphragm contracts (moves down) Lung Cancer: Disease of the Day Exhalation Air flows out Rib cage gets smaller as rib muscles relax The muscles relax and the ribs return to their relaxed position Most Common Cause of Death Due to Cancer Healthy Lungs Cancerous Lungs Average Survival After Diagnosis = 9 Months Diaphragm relaxes (moves up) Many Forms Resistant to Radiation/Chemotherapy Removal of Cancerous Portions Possible in Early Diagnosis 1 What are the different parts that can be damaged? One of the first signs of damage: loss of cilia Cilia Beat: Nasal cavity Oral cavity • Upwards in Trachea • Back/Down in Nasal Cavity Pharynx Damaged by Smoking! Trachea Larynx Right Bronchus Left Bronchus When cilia are lost, its impossible to prevent particles from settling in lungs Diaphragm Ways our body removes wastes What Is Cancer? O2 Cells growing out of control They lose control over cell division Food and water Respiratory system O2 Digestive system 3D Medical Animation - What is Cancer? 1:06 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEpTTolebqo&NR=1&feature=fvwp Urinary System: Organs Food wastes CO2 Skin CO2 wastes Circulatory system Kidneys Ureters wastes Transporting and Storing Urine Urethra Tubes that carry urine from Kidney Bladder Urinary Bladder Collapsible sac that stores urine At ~200 ml smooth muscle contracts Involuntary Internal Sphincter Urethra Urinary Bladder Urinary system Elimination of excess water, salts, metabolic wastes Transports O2, nutrients, Ureters What is the function of your urinary bladder? Water, salts Thin Tube Bladder Outside Voluntary External Sphincter oose Can Ch Wait… to 2 Looking Inside the Kidneys Functions of the Kidneys Excrete metabolic wastes Rich Blood Supply Water Balance Kidneys Ureters Maintain blood pH Ureter Urinary Bladder (Drains To Bladder) The kidneys filter wastes from the blood Produce hormones Urethra Urinary sys 5’ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxb2_d9ilEw Parts of a nephron Bowman’s capsule Collecting duct The Nephron Network of capillaries & collecting tubes Filters the blood to remove wastes; forms urine Renal tubule > 1 million per kidney Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Urine formation: 3 steps Filtration in Bowman’s Capsule Capsule Nephron Blood Pressure forces water & small molecules out of blood Capillaries Large Molecules (Proteins), Blood Cells Stay In Blood • Too big to push through capillary walls 3 Filtration Reabsorption Small molecules are filtered Water Salts Glucose Amino acids Waste products Most of the water, amino acids, glucose and salts are returned to the bloodstream urea, uric acid Blood pressure in the capillaries drives this process Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Summary: How the nephron forms urine Secretion Some drugs, waste products and ions (primarily H+ ions) are actively secreted from from blood into tubular fluid Helps control blood pH Helps eliminate substances from the body Afferent! arteriole 1 Bowmanʼs! capsule Filtration Efferent! arteriole Reabsorption Secretion Fluid in! renal tubule Water Glucose Amino acids Salts Urea. What causes high filtration pressure? 2 Water Glucose Amino acids NaCl (65%) Urine Water Salts Urea, etc 3 H+ ions Drug metabolites Active transport Copyright 2009, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Maintaining water balance The kidneys control how much water and salt are excreted maintain blood volume and blood pressure Maintaining water balance What happens when you drink a lot of water? Urine volume Less water is reabsorbed in the nephron 4 Lower Blood Volume Lower Blood Pressure at es Higher Blood Volume Higher Blood Pressure When blood pressure drops Hormones: Less water is lost in urine Cr e When you’re dehydrated, the hypothalamus secretes antidiuretic hormone (ADH) More water is reabsorbed into the blood Ki dn ey Maintaining water balance Kidney Helps Regulate Blood Pressure Aldosterone From Adrenal Loop reabsorbs more Salt Water Follows Salt Back to Blood Kidneys help maintain blood pH Kidneys reabsorb all filtered bicarbonate and excrete H+ Urinary tract infections Ki dn ey Cr e at es ADH From Hypothalamus Duct Gives Back More Water to Blood Kidneys produce hormones Erythropoeitin stimulates production of RBCs Kidneys convert vitamin D to its active form Kidney disease Caused by bacteria Enter urethra; travel up to the bladder Can travel up the ureters to the kidneys 5 How does blood pressure affect kidney function? High Blood Pressure Kidney Failure Bowman’s Capsule Low BP No Filtration Can’t Push Fluid Out Bowman’s Capsule Capillaries High BP Damage Vessels Proteins, Blood Get Into Capsule Nephrons Die Capillaries Kidney dialysis Nephrons Mainly in Cortex (Outer Section) Death of Nephrons Bumpy Cortex Treatment: • Treat Cause of High Blood Pressure • Dialysis (Blood Filtration by Machine) Kidney transplants The patient’s blood vessels and ureter are connected to the transplanted kidney.
