Summary Introduction

To review:

Match the term urination with the most closely related descriptions given below:

muscle of the urinary bladder

basic functional unit of a kidney

micturition

fibrous tunic of the kidney

the outer region of the kidney

consists of 6–18 renal pyramids

dense outer layer of the kidney

series of capillaries

region of the juxtaglomerular complex

Introduction:

The urine is stored in the urinary bladder, which releases the urine via the urethra. Urination is controlled by the sphincter muscles that are present in the urinary bladder. Urination is also known as voiding or micturition.

Explanation of Solution

The term urination is also medically known as micturition. It depends on two spinal reflexes that are the urine voiding and storage reflex. When the urinary bladder contracts, it forces the urine to come out of the body via the urethra. The sphincter muscles that are present in the urinary bladder control the expulsion of the urine.

Conclusion

Therefore, it can be concluded that the urination can be correctly matched with option (c) micturition.

A negligence action was brought by a mother against a hospital on behalf of her minor daughter. It alleged that when the mother was 13 years of age, the hospital negligently transfused her with Rh-positive blood. The mother's Rh-negative blood was incompatible with and sensitized by the Rh-positive blood. The mother discovered her condition 8 years later during a routine blood screening ordered by her healthcare provider in the course of prenatal care. The resulting sensitization of the mother's blood allegedly caused damage to the fetus, resulting in physical defects and premature birth. Did a patient relationship with the transfusing hospital exist?
