Urethra: carry urine out of the body. Filtration pressurized blood pushed against a barrier: removal of 10-15% of blood volume, production of 1. 5 to 2l/day of urine. Reabsorption: from filtrate back to blood. Secretion: from blood to filtrate, against a concentration gradient. Blood volume and osmolarity: loss of water and solutes, regulation of blood solute levels. Blood ph: secretion of h+ or hco 3- Gross: 10-12 cm in length, 130 grams, perirenal fat, shock absorber, hilum, posterior abdominal wall.
