Regulation of Kidney Function
The Kidney function is regulated by the hormonal feedback mechanism which involves hypothalamus regulation, regulation involving Juxtaglomerular Apparatus (JGA), and to some extent, the heart. If there is a change in blood volume, fluid volume or ionic concentration it activates the hypothalamic osmoreceptors whereas if there is excessive fluid loss or an increase in blood pressure these osmoreceptors respond by stimulating the neurohypophysis which further secrete ADH.
Regulation of Kidney Function Notes Class 11
The Kidneys which are present in the human body are responsible for multiple functions in humans which include the formation of urine, water metabolism, ionic balance, and regulation of blood pressure. Therefore with the help of these kidneys, the wastes are being removed from human body. These kidneys are responsible for regulating water balance in human beings and also filtering waste and excess of these fluids from the blood.
