filtration of blood
What else can I help you with?
What is the main function of the glomerulus in urine formation (Glomerulus is one of the four main structures of the nephron)?
filtration of blood
What is part of the nephron where substaces are filtered from glomerulus?
The Bowman's capsule is the part of the nephron that filters substances from the glomerulus. It surrounds the glomerulus and is responsible for collecting the filtrate that is produced.
Which group of capillaries found in a nephron?
The glomerulus
What does nephron consist of?
The glomerulus and the tubules.
What is the knot of coiled capillaries found in the kidneys and forms the filtrate?
This is a tuft of capillaries called the glomerulus. The glomerulus is one of the key structures that make up the nephron, the functional unit of the kidney.
Filtration occurs at the -------- part of the nephron?
Filtration occurs at the glomerulus, which is the initial part of the nephron where blood is filtered to form the filtrate that will eventually become urine.
Blood is filtered through---------the of the nephron?
Blood is filtered through the glomerulus of the nephron in the kidney. The glomerulus acts as a specialized cluster of blood capillaries that allows small molecules such as water, salts, and waste products to pass into the nephron for urine formation.
What are the collection capillaries at the beginning of the nephron?
glomerulus
Which component of the nephron covers the glomerulus?
Bowman's capsule
Where in the nephron are blood cells separated from lpasma?
Glomerulus
What part of the vertebrate nephron actually consists of capillaries?
glomerulus
The cluster of blood capillaries found in each nephron is?
Glomerulus
