Nephron: Tiny filtering unit of the kidney. is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney. Its chief function is to regulate the concentration of water and soluble substances like sodium salts by filtering the blood, reabsorbing what is needed and excreting the rest as urine.
Ureter: tube that carries urine from from each kidney to the bladder;is one of two uterine tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. Each ureter is about ten to twelve inches long. Urine flows down partly by gravity, but mainly by waves of contractions, which pass several times per minute through the muscle layers of the urethral walls.
Bladder: elastic, muscular organ that holds urine until it leaves the body through the urethra
Skin: The membranous tissue forming the external covering or integument of an animal and consisting in vertebrates of the epidermis and dermis.
Lungs: Either of two spongy, saclike respiratory organs in most vertebrates, occupying the chest cavity together with the heart
Large Intestine: The portion of the intestine that extends from the ileum to the anus
Kidney: Anatomy Either one of a pair of organs in the dorsal region of the vertebrate abdominal cavity
Urethra: Anatomy Either one of a pair of organs in the dorsal region of the vertebrate abdominal cavity
Renal Artery: An artery with its origin in the aorta and with distribution to the kidney
Dialysis: The separation of smaller molecules from larger molecules or of dissolved substances from colloidal particles in a solution by selective diffusion through a semipermeable membrane.
