Nephron: The functional unit of the kidney is called the nephron. There are over 1 million nephrons per kidney. When a patient’s nephron fails, The must participate in kidney dialysis. Draw and explain the processes that occur in the nephron. Include in your explanation filtration, reabsorption, secretion, and excretion. Your illustration must include the afferent and efferent arterioles, glomerulus, capsule, proximal convoluted tubules, a loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, collecting duct, and peritubular capillary.
Respiratory;
A spirogram measures lung volumes and lung capacities. An example of various lung volumes/capacities is shown on Figure 16.15.
you will explain each of the following terms related to a spirogram and graph each ( use Figure 16.15 as your guide).
1. Tidal volume
2. Inspiratory Reserve Volume
3. Expiratory Reserve Volume
4. Total Lung Capacity
5. Vital Capacity
6. Residual volume
