TUBULE(s)
renal tubulethe minute reabsorptive canals made up of basement membrane and lined with epithelium, composing the substance of the kidney and secreting, collecting, and conducting the urine; see also nephron.
Kidney (corpuscles and tubules)
In contrast, the secretory units of the kidney, called renal corpuscles, comprise a relatively small proportion of the kidney. The bulk of the kidney consists of highly specialized tubules, which correspond to the duct tree of a typical gland. Together, the renal corpuscle and its associated tubule is called a nephron.
