Main function of the urinary System
The human excretory system functions to remove waste from the human body.
During urination animals get rid of nitrogenous waste products of metabolism, including ammonia, urea, and uric acid.

Purpose of a kidney
Filters blood, redirecting wastes as urine through the ureter and to the urinary bladder and out of the body via urethra.
Each kidney consists of millions of nephrons – the fundamental units of the kidney

Structure of a nephron

What is a nephron?
A functional unit of a kidney.
Blood enters the nephron
at the Bowman’s
capsule and is filtered by
the glomerulus, a
ball of capillaries.
Bowman’s capsule collects filtrate, plasma
forced out of the blood.
Filtrate passes
through the entire
nephron becoming
modified into urine.

The 3 processes of blood purification inside the kidneys.
Filtration – blood is filtered through the glomerulus,
allowing small substances to pass further; ions, urea and
amino acids. All these substances make up a fluid
called filtrate.

Reabsorption – Small solutes such as
water, nutrients, and salts are reabsorbed
and then urine remains.

Secretion – Substances including H+, potassium, and
ammonium ions enter the tubules as part of
urine.

The remaining urine goes to the collecting duct and into the ureters, the
bladder and out of the body via the urethra.
