Kidneys
- Kidney Failure
- Dialysis
- The filtering of blood
using an artificial
kidney machine.
- Removes urea
and other waste.
- Removes urea
and other waste.
- Expensive and
time-consuming
- The filtering of blood
using an artificial

- Transplant
- Transplants can be
rejected and
medication must be
taken for the rest of
your life to prevent
the transplant being
rejected.
- Requires surgery
and associated risks
- A precise donor is needed
- Transplants can be
rejected and
medication must be
taken for the rest of
your life to prevent
the transplant being
rejected.
- Dialysis
- The Nephron
- Ultrafiltration
- High pressure forces fluid from
the blood through the walls of
the glomerulus and into the
space in the middle of the
Bowman's capsule.

into the body during
digestion.
- Digestion
- Mechanical
digestion
- Chewing of food into smaller pieces -
aids persitalsis
