Which part of the nephron receives fluid from the glomerular capsular space?
The filtrate from Bowman's capsule first travels to the proximal tubule of the nephron.
What is the hollow bulb at the end of proximal end of the nephron?
glomerular capsule
What is the name of a hollow bulb at the proximal end of the nephron?
glomerular capsule.
In the nephron where does glomerular filtration take place?
Glomerulus (Renal Corpuscle)
The portion of the nephron receiving filtrate from the glomerular capsule?
proximal convoluted tubule
Which organ filters urea out of the blood?
The glomerulus, it is part of the nephron.
The renal corpuscle includes which parts of the nephron?
Bowman's capsule and glomerulus (capillary tuft).
What is the cup-shaped part of the nephron?
The cup-shaped part of the nephron is called the renal (or Bowman's) capsule. It is located at the beginning of the nephron and surrounds the glomerulus, which is a network of capillaries. The renal capsule helps in the filtration of blood and the formation of urine.
What C-shaped structure in the nephron surrounds the glomerulus?
Bowman's Capsule
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.
Which component of the nephron covers the glomerulus?
Bowman's capsule
What part of the nephron is involved in the glomerular filtration process of urine formation?
filtration takes place only at glomeruli part of nephron and nowhere else.
