Urinary System - Human Anatomy - Handout, Exercises of Anatomy

Urinary System, Main Organs, Main Functions, Blood Flow Through Kidneys, Anatomy of Kidney, Membranous Urethra, Glomerular Capsule, Peritubular Capillaries, Interlobular Veins are some names of body part. In human anatomy we learned about internal human body part. Images are always helpful understanding such a topic. We got almost 150 images in this course and few handouts without image(text only).
