Kidney and nephron anatomy structure course,
in this course we will learn about the Kidney and Nephron Anatomy Structure course, focusing on the detailed anatomy and function of the kidneys and their functional units, the nephrons. The course covers the structural components, including the renal cortex, medulla, and pelvis, and explores how nephrons perform filtration, reabsorption, and secretion. Participants will study the role of the glomerulus, proximal and distal tubules, and collecting ducts in maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance. The course emphasizes kidney functions such as waste elimination, blood pressure regulation, hormone production (like erythropoietin), and acid-base balance. This comprehensive exploration equips learners with the knowledge needed to understand renal physiology, contributing to effective patient care in healthcare settings.
