Link each organ/structure to its description/main function.
Nephron
Their function is to remove waste products from the blood
and to aid in maintaining water and electrolyte balances.
Urinary bladder
Urine producing microscopic structure.
Kidneys
Two slender tubes that receive the urine from the kidneys
and carry it to the bladder.
Glomerulus
Muscular, hollow organ that temporarily holds the urine.
Ureters
Tube through which the urine passes from the urinary
bladder to the outside of the body.
Renal pelvis
Cluster of capillaries at the entrance of the nephron.
Urethra
Funnel-shaped reservoir that collects the urine and passes
it to the ureter.
Bowman’s capsule
The liquid produced by the kidneys to carry wastes from the
body.
Urine
Double-walled, cup-shaped structure around the
glomerulus of each nephron.
Classify the sentences as true or false.
True
False
The ureter transports urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder.
The entire responsibility for urine formation lies with the nephron.
Urea is reabsorbed in the loop of Henle.
Water, salt, sugar, and proteins are filtered out of the blood in the capillaries of
the glomerulus.
The urinary bladder is the only unpaired organ of the urinary system.

True False The ureter transports urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder. The entire responsibility for urine formation lies with the nephron. Urea is reabsorbed in the loop of Henle. Water, salt, sugar, and proteins are filtered out of the blood in the capillaries of the glomerulus. The urinary bladder is the only unpaired organ of the urinary system. Tubular secretion removes wastes from the blood not removed during glomerular filtration. Bowman's capsule envelops the glomerulus.
