Control of kidney function.

The activity of the nephron in the kidney is NORMALLY controlled by a person's choices
and environment as well as hormones. For example, if a person USUALLY consumes
large amounts of protein, much urea will be in the blood from the digestion of the
protein.
Also, on a hot day, a body will retain water for sweating and cooling, so the amount of
urine is reduced.
CURSO : ENGLISH II

Facultad de Medicina Humana Daniel Alcides Carrin Garcia

[Ao]

Humans NORMALLY produce a hormone called antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also

known as vasopressin, which is secreted by the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland. It
ALWAYS regulates the amount of urine by controlling the rate of water absorption in
the nephron tubules.
SOMETIMES some individuals suffer from a condition in which they secrete very low
levels of ADH. The result is excessive urination and a disease called diabetes insipidus.
Another unrelated form of diabetes, diabetes mellitus, is more widespread. Persons
with this disease NEVER produce sufficient levels of insulin. Insulin REGULARLY
transports glucose molecules into the cells. But when insulin is not available, the glucose
remains in the bloodstream. The glucose is ALWAYS removed from the bloodstream in
the nephron; to dilute the glucose, the nephron removes large amounts of water from
the blood. Thus, the urine tends to be plentiful.
Hormones from the cortex of the adrenal glands also control the content of urine. These
hormones promote reabsorption of sodium and chloride ions in the tubules. Thus, they
affect the water balance in the body, because water flows in the direction of high sodium
and chloride content.

C. TRANSLATION. Translate the text above.

El control de la funcin renal.

La actividad de la nefrona en el rin es normalmente controlada por las decisiones de

una persona y el medio ambiente, as como las hormonas. Por ejemplo, si una persona
consume NORMALMENTE grandes cantidades de protena, mucho urea estarn en la
sangre de la digestin de la protena.
Tambin, en un da caluroso, un cuerpo retendr el agua para la sudoracin y la
refrigeracin, por lo que la cantidad de orina se reduce.

Los seres humanos producen NORMALMENTE una hormona llamada hormona

antidiurtica (ADH), tambin conocida como vasopresina, que es secretada por el lbulo
posterior de la glndula pituitaria. Eso SIEMPRE regula la cantidad de orina mediante el
control de la tasa de absorcin de agua en los tbulos nefrona.
A VECES algunos individuos sufren de una condicin en la que secretan muy baja niveles
de ADH. El resultado es el exceso de orina y una enfermedad llamada diabetes inspida.
Otra forma relacionada de la diabetes, la diabetes mellitus, est ms extendida. Las
personas con esta enfermedad NUNCA producen suficientes niveles de insulina. La
insulina transporta REGULARMENTE molculas de glucosa en las clulas. Pero cuando la
insulina no est disponible, la glucosa permanece en el torrente sanguneo. La glucosa
se elimina siempre desde el torrente sanguneo en la nefrona; para diluir la glucosa, la
nefrona elimina grandes cantidades de agua de la sangre. Por lo tanto, la orina tiende a
ser abundante.
Las hormonas de la corteza de las glndulas suprarrenales tambin controlan el
contenido de la orina. Estas hormonas promueven la reabsorcin de iones de sodio y
cloruro en los tbulos. Por lo tanto, afectar el balance de agua en el cuerpo, porque el
agua fluye en la direccin de sodio de alta y el contenido de cloruro.

The human male reproductive system (or male genital system) consists of a number
of sex organs that are a part of the human reproductive process. In the case of men,
these
sex organs are located outside a man's body, around the pelvic region.
The main male sex organs are the penis and the testes which produce semen and sperm,
which as part of sexual intercourse fertilize an ovum in a woman's body and the fertilized
ovum (zygote) gradually develops into a fetus, which is later born as a child.
