The filtration membrane includes all except?

The filtration membrane includes the glomerular endothelium, podocytes, and basement membrane. The only thing it doesn't include is the renal fascia.


What is inside the glomerular capsule?

I am looking for the same answer too.... so I am not sure if I am right... My book says that simple squamous epithelium is used at the filtration membrane of the kidney i guess that they are implying the glomerular capsule but I am not sure. However it does make sense as simple squamous allows for rapid diffusion of material.


What happens when sound hits a thin membrane?

What happens when sound hits a thin membrane is that it vibrates the tympanic membrane. The tympanic membrane is also known as the eardrum.


What role does the lamina demsa play in the renal corpuscle?

The lamina densa is a component of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) in the renal corpuscle. It provides structural support and acts as a filtration barrier, preventing the passage of large molecules like proteins from the blood into the glomerular filtrate. It also helps maintain the integrity and function of the renal corpuscle by separating the glomerular endothelial cells and podocytes.


What does the glomerular capsule surround?
