1. Trace the blood flow through the kidney, naming the blood vessels in order.

2. Trace the filtrate and the major changes in it, from Bowman’s capsule to the urethra.

3. If the sympathetic nervous system causes vasoconstriction in the kidney, how does this increase blood pressure? How does it affect urine output?

4. Compare the signs of cystitis and pyelonephritis.

5. Compare the causes and pathophysiology of acute pyelonephritis, APSGN, and nephrotic syndrome.
