a.

Summary Introduction

To indicate:

The target area in nephron and the actions of the following hormones a. Antidiuretic hormone, b. Aldosterone c. Atrial natriuretic hormone.

Introduction:

The kidney is a complex excretory organ made up of repeating units called nephrons. Each nephron has a loop that penetrates into a deep portion of kidney, medulla. There are approximately one million nephrons in each kidney in the body. Nephron is divided into two parts, renal corpuscles and renal tubules. Renal corpuscle includes glomerulus and Bowman’s capsule whereas renal tubule includes proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct.
