Papillary Duct
distal convoluted tubule
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.

The glomerulus.
The structure that filters the blood in the kidneys is the nephron, or more specifically the glomerulus.
The cup-shaped part of the nephron is called the renal (or Bowman's) capsule. It is located at the beginning of the nephron and surrounds the glomerulus, which is a network of capillaries. The renal capsule helps in the filtration of blood and the formation of urine.

Urethra is not a part of nephron. You have about one million nephrons in each kidney and you have only one urethra.

He was admitted to the hospital because of problem in nephron. It is an example sentence using the word nephron.
Nephron
filtration takes place only at glomeruli part of nephron and nowhere else.
