The kidneys filter the blood, produce urine, and reabsorb vital electrolytes.  The spleen destroys old blood cells and plays a part in the immune system.

first of all start by maybe checking with your doctor for any type of kidney problems because i have heard of that too. it could also be a chiropractic problem. sometimes it could be something as simple as buying a new bed.

See a nephrologist. Cranberries are very good for kidneys. Also all the B-vitamins.

I guess your're talking about the nephrons in the kidney. the filtration membrane or barrier is made up by the basement membrane or lamina and primary and secondary processes of the podocytes(that form filtration pore) However the visceral membrane (are you talking about the arteriole) does not act as a barrier as it is fenestrated.

I'm not positive, but I suspect it is similar to how most animals synthesize fluids: They have special glands that create the ink from fluids within their system that is collected from food they eat. It is likely a similar process to how a kidney filters toxins from the blood to make urine or how a snake makes venom by synthesizing proteins from nutrients from their food. Our bodies create bile, saliva, and a host of other fluids in the same way - they are generated by glands extracting the necessary components from our blood.

It's caused by too much salt. Large salt intake causes fluid retention, giving that swollen/puffy/fat look. This is caused by the salt/water balance in the body. Drink some extra water and it will go away once your kidneys do their job.

what are these words!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think these are liver and kidney, ok these links may have the expected answers\n\nhttp://www.netdoctor.co.uk/liver_kidney/index.shtml\nhttp://www.hrpca.org/kidneyfunction.htm\nhttp://www.healthline.com/search?q1=function%20kidney%20liver&utm_source=gale&utm_medium=google&utm_campaign=serp&utm_term=function%20kidney%20liver

Large amounts of protein in your urine means that your body is not absorbing its nutrients properly, which could mean that there something not right with your kidney's. I would definitely go have it checked out by a Doctor.

Only one I can think of is the Palm Heart. It is the unexpanded vegetative apex that is vaguely heart shaped.

the shape of animal cell can be altered while plant cell have a fixed shape. \nplant cell have cell wall but animal cell have none. \nplant cell have ssap vacoule but animal cell have none  ( if there was one it is really small).\n\nother differences if you would like to know\nthe plant cell nucleus is at one side while the animal cell nuclues is centrally located.\nthe presence of chloroplast in plant cell while animal cell have none.

When we do a renal ultrasound on a patient, in the facility where I work, we measure the renal cortex thickness.  To tell you the truth, I have no idea what it means if it is too thick.  If it is too thin, usually that means that the kidney's collection structures are dilated, which is called hydronephrosis.  This is a sign of obstruction.  At the following link, you can see ultrasound images of a dilated kidney.  The area between the black (fluid) in the middle of the kidney and the outer edge of the kidney is the renal cortex.  \n\n\nThe renal cortex is the outer portion of the kidney between the renal capsule and the renal medulla. It forms a continuous smooth outer zone in the adult which extends down between the pyramids. It contains the renal corpuscles and the renal tubules except for parts of the loop of Henle which descend into the renal medulla. It also contains blood vessels and cortical collecting ducts.

I don't know exactly what role they have but are you talking about what process do tey go through or the actual function of the kidney. Like it's ability to filter. If thats the case then sodium is just a ion the is filtered throughout parts of the nephron (functional unit of the kidney).  You asked the question like how it would sound if someone said what role does food have in the stomach. As pertaining to actual functioning of the kidney I don't know. Some parts of the nephron are more permeable to certain substances. The loop of henle is the site of loop diuretic action and that affects water loss. Water loss and ion regulation is a function of the kidney.

Sometimes a donated organ just doesn't work and you'll never know the reason.  It might not have been as healthy a kidney as thought before transplant, or it could have degenerated during transport, or your blood vessels could not adequately supply the new kidney with the needed blood within the proper time to keep the new kidney healthy....or...or...or.  Ask your physician why, because there are several possibilities and all we can do is guess. \n\nAre you a diabetic by any chance?

The two kidneys of humans are located behind the abdomen.  The kidneys regulate how much water, sodium, potassium, calcium, and phosphate are in the blood.  The kidneys also remove waste products from the body such as uric acid.  Each kidney is filled with capillaries wrapped around very tiny nephrons which filter the blood.
