What else can I help you with?
The portion of the renal tubule that completely surrounds the glomerulus is the?
The portion of the renal tubule that completely surrounds the glomerulus is the Bowman's capsule. It plays a crucial role in the filtration of blood to form the primary filtrate in the kidney.
What is the Clump of capillaries in the kidney?
The glomerulus
What are the inner and outer portions of the kidney called?
The outer portion is called the Cortex and the inner dark portion is called the Renal Medulla
What is the name of the cluster of capillaries in the kidney where filtration occurs?
The cluster of capillaries in the kidney where filtration occurs is called the glomerulus. The glomerulus is part of the nephron, which is the functional unit of the kidney responsible for filtering blood to form urine.
What is the structure that drains blood from the glomerulus in the kidney?
The structure that drains blood from the glomerulus in the kidney is the efferent arteriole. This arteriole carries blood away from the glomerulus and plays a crucial role in regulating blood flow and pressure within the kidney.
Clump of capilliaries in the kidney is called?
Glomerulus
The filtration of the blood in the kidney takes place in the?
Glomerulus
Where are podocytes found in the human body?
In the glomerulus of the kidney.
Where does filtration occurs in the kidney?
On the top on the kidney.
What is the vascular part of the nephron of the kedney called?
The vascular part of the nephron in the kidney is called the renal corpuscle. It consists of the glomerulus, a network of capillaries, and Bowman's capsule, a structure that surrounds the glomerulus. This is where the process of blood filtration in the kidney begins.
Kidney has how many glomerulus?
Each kidney contains approximately 500,000 glomeruli
In the kidney what structure that delivers blood to the glomerulus?
The afferent arteriole.
