The Urinary System

open access: yesPathologic Basis of Veterinary Disease, 2017
The paired kidneys, the urine bladder, and the urethra constitute the urinary system. The kidneys remove waste products from the body, conserve water, and reabsorb electrolytes and metabolic substances. Furthermore, they are essential for maintenance of the pH homeostasis, the blood pressure, and the volume and composition of the extracellular fluid ...
