The renal system covers the glomerular function, tubular function, acid-base homeostasis, biochemical assessment, and clinical correlations. The glomerulus is mainly involved in the filtration of the blood for the excretion of waste products while retaining most of the proteins.
The renal tubules function in secretion, reabsorption, and excretion of electrolytes, ions, organic acids, and urea. The renal tubules help regulate the osmolality, volume, and pH of the blood.
