What purifies blood in the kidneys?
glomerulus
What is the arteriole that contains cleaner blood because it has been filtered by the glomerulus?
The efferent arteriole receives the blood that has been filtered by the glomerulus.
Blood is filtered through---------the of the nephron?
The glomerulus.
Do blood cells pass from the glomerulus to Bowmans capsule?
Yes, filtered blood from the glomerulus passes to the Bowman's capsule also called the renal capsule.
What is the structure that drains blood from the glomerulus in the kidney?
The efferent arteriole.
What substances are filtered out of the blood in the glomerulus?
plasma,palets
Which arteriole supplies blood to the capillary of the glomerulus?
The afferent arteriole supplies blood to the capillaries in the glomerulus of the kidneys. The efferent arteriole takes the blood away from the glomerulus.
Increased blood pressure in the glomerulus?
Blood pressure in the glomerulus in very high. Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!! :D
What is the blood vessel that drains blood from the glomerulus?
Efferent arteriole takes the blood away from the glomerulus
What feeds the glomerulus and what drains the glomerulus?
Blood enters the glomerulus through the afferent arteriole and drains through the efferent arteriole.
What Blood vessel located between afferent and efferent arterioles?
Glomerulus capillary
What can be flitered in the glomerulus?
Blood is filtered there.
What purifies blood in the kidneys?
glomerulus
Where does filtration of blood occurs?
glomerulus
What is the arteriole that contains cleaner blood because it has been filtered by the glomerulus?
The efferent arteriole receives the blood that has been filtered by the glomerulus.
What causes protein in urine when you have lupus?
There are small filters in the kidney called the glomerulus. When a person has lupus, either the lupus causes inflammation in the glomerulus or immune complexes, huge molecules that develop as a result of autoimmune activitiy, clog the filters. The filters are supposed to return good things to the blood and pass garbage through the urine. When the filters are inflamed of clogged, they fail to collect protein and return it to the blood. As a result, protein "leaks" into the urine.
What drives plasma from the blood into Bowman's capsule?
'''Hydrostatic and osmotic pressure gradients drive protein-free plasma from the blood across the walls of the glomerular capillaries and into the Bowman?s capsule.'''
