The medulla is the inner region of the parenchyma of the kidney. The medulla consists of multiple pyramidal tissue masses, called renal pyramids.

The kidney's parenchyma's interior section is called the medulla.

The renal pyramids, which are triangle-shaped structures with a dense network of nephrons within them, are a collection of several pyramidal tissue masses that make up the medulla.

The Bowman's capsule, which is shaped like a cup and is located in the cortex of the kidney, is at one end of each nephron. The glomerulus, a group of capillaries that conducts blood from the renal arteries into the nephron where plasma is filtered via the capsule, is encircled by it.

The filtered fluid exits the capsule and travels via the collecting ducts and distal convoluted tubule before exiting the body through the ureter. It then travels down the proximal convoluted tubule to the loop of Henle. The complicated management of water and ion concentrations in the body is made possible by the numerous components of the nephrons, each of which is selectively permeable to distinct molecules.

The nurse considers that a 70-year-old female client can best limit further progression of osteoporosis by doing what?
Alenkinab [10]
The nurse considers that a 70-year-old female client can best limit further progression of osteoporosis by taking supplement which contains vitamin D and calcium. Osteoporosis is a bone condition where one develops a fragile bone that is very susceptible to fracture. Causes for this condition can be genetics, lack of physical activity, insufficient amount vitamin D and calcium in the body, smoking and many other. This condition does not have any symptoms with it until fractures in the bones happen. One way to prevent or decrease the chances of developing it to serious cases is to supply your body the right nutrients and vitamins.

What is the basic mechanism by which air travels to the alveoli for gas​ exchange? emt?
Anestetic [448]
The Major function of the respiratory system is to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide. Inhaled oxygen enters the lungs and reaches the alveoli, the layers of the cells lining the alveoli and the surrounding capillaries are each only one cell thick and are in very close contact with each other, the barrier between air and blood averages about 1 micron in thickness. Oxygen diffuses quickly through the air-blood barrier into the blood in the capillaries. Similarly, carbon dioxide passes from the blood into the alveoli and is then exhaled.
