What part take the dirty water out of blood?
The kidney takes un-wanted stuff out of the blood. Then it all mixes (not the blood!) and becomes urine.Or dirty blood can be filtered by the GLOMERUS and used again.
How is kidney nephron adapted to its function?
Blood is filtered through the capillaries of the glomerulus into the Bowman's capsule. The Bowman's capsule empties the filtrate into a tubule that is also part of the nephron. The function of the glomerulus is to filter the resultant fluid that will become urine.

What structure of the kidney receives urine first?
In fact, the kidney dose not receives the urine but it produces the urine by receiving the filtrate from the blood vessels . and the first part wich receives the filtrate is the " glomerus"
What structures rely on pressure for the movement of urine?
Many structures within the kidneys rely on fluid pressure. The glomerus, Bowman's capsule, and tubules are all parts of the kidney that rely on fluid pressure to move the urine components along.
What is the glomerus and in which tissue of the kidney is this part of the nephron located?
The glomerus a capillary tuft which receives its blood supply from an afferent arteriole of the renal circulation. Its blood pressure provides the power to force fluids and solutes to be filtered out of the blood into the space made by the Bowman's capsule. The remaining unfiltered blood passes into the narrower efferent arteriole. It then moves into the vasa recta, the collecting capillaries intertwined with the convoluted tubules through the interstitial space where the reabsorbed substances also enter. It then joins with the efferent venules of the other nephrons into the renal vein before rejoining with the main bloodstream.

What is the function of the loop of Henie?
well urea salts crap like that is filtered through the glomerus were it then becomes filtrate (made up of the urea slats i think glucose too) it then travels down the loop of henley where the glucose is reabsorbed by the blood but the waste product are carried off to the bladder :)
