Definitions and functions of key terms related to the urinary system, including the kidneys, ureters, urethra, and various processes such as filtration, tubular reabsorption, and tubular secretion. It covers the roles of structures like the renal papilla, renal columns, and the renin-angiotensin system, as well as the elimination of major nitrogenous wastes like urea, creatinine, and uric acid.
