Tiny cells in the kidneys called nephrons filter the blood, they are composed of the glomerulus and the tubule. You have thousands of nephrons in each kidney.
No. There are three types of blood vessels. They are the arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries are the largest of the blood vessels. Then comes the veins and the smallest are the capillaries.
I will tell you what a capillary is, but you should figure it out from there. A capillary is the tiny blood vessel that connects veins and arteries. The blood would go through the capillaries to reach one or the other. Remember: Arteries and veins each carry old or new blood. I can't remember what does what.
