Filtration occurs at the -------- part of the nephron?
In the Glomerules
The renal corpuscle includes which parts of the nephron?
Bowman's capsule and glomerulus (capillary tuft).
Where is the glomerulus filtrate?
In the kidneys.
What purifies blood in the kidneys?
glomerulus
What is the arteriole that contains cleaner blood because it has been filtered by the glomerulus?
The efferent arteriole receives the blood that has been filtered by the glomerulus.
Ball of capillaries enclosed in capsule that filters the materials out of the blood?
The glomerulus is a ball of capllaries enclosed in the Bowman's capsule that filters out wastes from the blood.
Where does the transition from an afferent arteriole to an efferent arteriole occur?
glomerulus. The afferent arteriole leads to a ball of capillaries called a glomerulus which is enclosed in a nephron structure called the glomerular capsule. Blood leaves the glomerulus by way of the efferent arteriole.
What are Components of the renal corpuscle?
The Tuft of capillaries, known as the glomerulus, enclosed by a fluid-filled capsule called the Bowman's capsule.
What is surrounded by the Bowman's Capsule?
the glomerulus
Filtration occurs at the -------- part of the nephron?
In the Glomerules
What is the Clump of capillaries in the kidney?
The glomerulus
Which section of the tubule is connected to the glomerulus?
The Bowman's capsule surrounds the glomerulus, and the glomerulus filtrate enters the top of the nephron.
The renal corpuscle includes which parts of the nephron?
Bowman's capsule and glomerulus (capillary tuft).
What feeds the glomerulus and what drains the glomerulus?
Blood enters the glomerulus through the afferent arteriole and drains through the efferent arteriole.
Which is a primary accented syllable in glomerulus?
Glomerulus is accented on the second syllable.
Which group of capillaries found in a nephron?
The glomerulus
What system in the body does the glomerulus actually belong to?
The glomerulus is part of the urinary system.
