6824822543ADHSecreted from posterior pituitary from hypothalamus. Targets kidneys. Increased osmotic pressure increases ADH release. Causing thirst and water retention0
6824822544AldosteroneSecreted by the supra renal cortex. Responds to increased potassium and decreased sodium. Causes water retention, thirst, reabsorbtion of sodium and chloride1
6824822545ANPReleased due to stretching of heart wall muscles, due to increased bp or bv. Reduces thirst, and fluid loss at kidney. Inhibits ADH. Dilates afferent. Constricts efferent.2
6824822546Renin/angiotentionDecreased GFR, increased release of renin. Stimulates angeotention 2. Causes increased bp. Release ADH and aldosterone3
6824822547Simple squamousGlomerular capsule, thin ascending, primordial follicles4
6824822548Stratified squamousVagina wall5
6824822549Simple cuboidalDct, pct, thick decending6
6824822550ColumnarEndometrium, cervix, ovaries, infundibulum, vast deferens7
6824822551Cells of uretersTransitional, squamous, cuboidal8

6824822553SpermatogenisisContinuous, no polar body, 4 spermatazoa, starts at puberty, never ends10
6824822554OogenisisStages, polar body, 1 ovum, limited years11
6824822555FiltrationEverything except blood cells and large proteins move to glomerulus to renal capsule12
6824822556ReabsorptionTubules to blood13
6824822557SecretionBlood to tubules14
6824822558LHProduce androgen that produces testosterone. GNRH from hypothalamus allows LH causing primary oocyte to finish meiosis. Induce ovulation, inhibit estrogen15
6824822559FSHStimulates germ cell formation. Causes spermatogensis, follicle development, inhibited by estrogen16
6824822560Control of GFRAutoregulation, hormone control, autonomic regulation17
6824822561Vas DeferensFrom tail of epididmysis to prostate. Smooth muscle ans cilliated columnar, transport and store spermatazoa18
6824822562Male reproductiveTestes, epididmysis, vas deferens, ejaculated duct, urethra19
