Chapter 25 Control of Body Temperature (Ch.
20) and Water Balance=Urinary System
 Homeostasis is the maintenance of steady internal
conditions despite fluctuations in the external
environment.
 Examples of homeostasis include
– thermoregulation—the maintenance of internal
temperature within narrow limits (Ch. 20 and discussion
endotherms),
– osmoregulation—the control of the gain and loss of
water and solutes, and
– excretion—the disposal of nitrogen-containing wastes.

25.6 The urinary system plays several major
roles in homeostasis
 The urinary system
– forms and excretes urine and
– regulates water and solutes in body fluids.
 In humans, the kidneys are the main processing
centers of the urinary system.

25.6 The urinary system plays several major
roles in homeostasis
 Nephrons
– are the functional units of the kidneys,
– extract a fluid filtrate from the blood, and
– refine the filtrate to produce urine.
 Urine is
– drained from the kidneys by ureters,
– stored in the urinary bladder, and
– expelled through the urethra.

25.6 Overview: The key processes of the urinary
system are filtration, reabsorption,
secretion, and excretion
 Filtration
– Blood pressure forces water and many small molecules
through a capillary wall of glomeruli surrounded by
Bowman’s capsule into the start of the kidney tubule.
 Reabsorption
– In the tubules filtrate is refined,
– reclaims valuable solutes (such as glucose, salt, and
amino acids) from the filtrate, and
– returns these to the blood.

25.6 Overview: The key processes of the urinary
system are filtration, reabsorption,
secretion, and excretion
 Substances in the blood are transported into the
filtrate by the process of secretion.
 By excretion the final product, urine, is excreted
via the ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra.
