renal corpuscle and renal tubule
The nephron consists of a cup-shaped capsule containing capillaries and the glomerulus, and a long renal tube. Blood flows into the kidney through the renal artery, which branches into capillaries associated with the glomerulus. Arterial pressure causes water and solutes from the blood to filter into the capsule. Fluid flows through the proximal tubule, which include the loop of Henle, and then into the distal tubule. The distal tubule empties into a collecting duct. Fluids and solutes are returned to the capillaries that surround the nephron tubule.
nutrients (glucose, amino acids, vitamins, and so forth) are reabsorbed in this
region. This mostly occurs by passive diffusion into the cells lining the tubule,
but also involves active transport from the cell to the blood. Active transport is
carried out by protein carrier molecules (membrane channel proteins); it is
"selective" since only those molecules recognized by specific carrier proteins can
move across the membrane. Extensive microvilli on the cell membrane help to
increase absorptive surface area, enhancing the ability of this tubule to reabsorb
solutes.
• Loop of Henle: consists of descending and ascending limbs. This area is used to
create a salty interstitium that in turn attracts water to move from the tubules
into the kidney interstitium
A -descending limb-permeable to water and recovers water by moving it
from tubule into the salty interstitium.
B- ascending limb-actively pumps salt (NaCl) into interstitium to create a
concentration gradient that helps water move from the descending limb to
the interstitium
• Distal Convoluted Tubule-This area actively reabsorbs Na+ with the aid of a
hormone called aldosterone. Additionally, active tubular secretion of wastes and
some drugs into the tubular filtrate occurs here.
• Collecting Tubule-The last 15% of water reabsorption takes place here, with the
aid of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secreted by the posterior pituitary gland. Its
secretion is regulated by changes in blood volume or blood osmolality. ADH
renders the lining of tubules more porous so most of the remaining H2O is
reabsorbed here.
• Peritubular Capillary System (vasa recta) this vascular network surrounds the
nephron and is the ultimate place where water, electrolytes, and nutrients are
reabsorbed into the body's bloodstream.

Though the Medullary Collecting ducts are found in the kidney, an author stated that it is not part of the nephron.

The blood vessel that carries blood to the glomerulus is called the afferent vessel. But the glomerulus is not close ended nad the vessel that leaves it, called the efferent vessel, carries on beside the nephron and collects the components that are reabsorbed.

There are 3 -4 major components of Power Point. The components include the menu bar as the options bar.
There are 6 major components which are included in a research study. These components include the problem, the question, the cause, the units, the effect, and the design.
Papillary duct or DCT The thing in this question that stands out to me is "part of the nephron". Actually the parts of a nephron only include renal corpuscle, proximal convoluted tuble, nephron loop, and distal convoluted tubule. I would a say the answer, if you read it the way I am taking it, is DCT. The papillary duct does follow the DCT but is not part of the nephron.
Nephron is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephron It is composed of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule. The renal corpuscle consists of a glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule. It is the nephron's initial filtering component. The components of the renal tubule are the proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle and the distal convoluted tubule.
Major components include bedspreads, sheets, coverlets, quilts, blankets, throws, comforters, mattress pads, airbeds, pillowcases, pillows, shams, and bedskirts.
Major parts of a budget include how much money is available, and what needs there are. Some of these needs include food, shelter, and insurance.
The blood vessel that carries blood to the glomerulus is called the afferent vessel. But the glomerulus is not close ended nad the vessel that leaves it, called the efferent vessel, carries on beside the nephron and collects the components that are reabsorbed.
Carbohydrates, Fats and Proteins are the major components of food.
Extracellular components include cellulose, teeth, bone cartilage, and connective tissue. To sum it up, extracellular components are material outside the cell membrane.
