Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Toxic damage to the nephrons can interfere with urine production by damaging the structures responsible for filtering and forming urine within the kidneys. This can result in a decrease in urine production or the production of abnormal urine. Benign prostatic hypertrophy and renal calculi can interfere with the storage and release of urine, but not necessarily with urine production itself. A tumor in the renal pelvis may interfere with urine drainage but not specifically with urine production.
