What capsule is part of the renal corpuscle that surrounds the glomerulus of the nephron?
Bowman's
Which regions of the nephron function independently of hormonal control for the most part?
Renal corpuscle, proximal tubule, and loop of Henle.
What is the terminal part of the nephron?
Papillary duct or DCT The thing in this question that stands out to me is "part of the nephron". Actually the parts of a nephron only include renal corpuscle, proximal convoluted tuble, nephron loop, and distal convoluted tubule. I would a say the answer, if you read it the way I am taking it, is DCT. The papillary duct does follow the DCT but is not part of the nephron.
What are the the triangular-shaped areas of the renal medulla are the?
They are located in the renal medulla and are made of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule.
Where do filtration of the blood and re-absorption of nutrients occur?
filteration of blood:- is in the kidney absorption of nutrients :- is in the small intestine
What are the two main parts of a nephron?
it consistsof two parts the renal corpusle and the renal tubule. The question I gave my students was What are the two main parts of a nephron and that was the answer
What section of the nephron filters blood plasma?
renal corpuscle
What capsule is part of the renal corpuscle that surrounds the glomerulus of the nephron?
Bowman's
In the nephron where does glomerular filtration take place?
Glomerulus (Renal Corpuscle)
The portion of the nephron closest to the renal corpuscle is the?
Proximal tubule
What is the ball of specialized capillaries within a kidney nephron where renal filtration occurs?
a ball , tightly coiled capillaries within a kidney nephron where renal filtration occurs
A nephon consists of a renal corpuscle and a what?
nephron consists of a cluster of blood capillaries called glomerulus and a renal tubule. now the renal tubule is swollen at one end and forms Bowman's capsule. the glomerulus surrounds this capsule and they together are called renal corpuscle. so the nephron consists of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule. and the renal tubule is convoluted at first (also covered by blood capillaries) , then forms a U shape called "loop of henle" .then it ends into the collecting duct.
What is the major mechanism responsible for preventing the filtration of proteins in the nephron?
arterial pressure and filtration size in the renal corpuscle
What is the structural unit of the kidney?
Nephron is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephron It is composed of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule. The renal corpuscle consists of a glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule. It is the nephron's initial filtering component. The components of the renal tubule are the proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle and the distal convoluted tubule.
What is the expanded end of a nephron?
The expanded end of a nephron is called the bowman's capsule. It is a cup-shaped structure that serves as a filter to remove waster from the body.
Which regions of the nephron function independently of hormonal control for the most part?
Renal corpuscle, proximal tubule, and loop of Henle.
What is the terminal part of the nephron?
Papillary duct or DCT The thing in this question that stands out to me is "part of the nephron". Actually the parts of a nephron only include renal corpuscle, proximal convoluted tuble, nephron loop, and distal convoluted tubule. I would a say the answer, if you read it the way I am taking it, is DCT. The papillary duct does follow the DCT but is not part of the nephron.
