What area of the nephron is the site of hydrogen ion excretion?
Hydrogen ion excretion is the result of standard kidney (nephron) function, when processing fluids in the body. This is done at the bottom of the kidneys.
Where does filtration occurs in the kidney?
On the top on the kidney.
Water excretion is regulated by the?
Nephron!
What is tubular excretion?
Very generally, excretion is the removal of substance from the body (micturition or defecation are good examples). Tubular excretion is probably referring to excretion of (filtrate, now urine) from the collecting duct of a nephron. Beyond the collecting duct, almost no secretion or absorption occurs, hence all substrate is excreted (NOT the same as secreted).
What is the nephron the basic unit of?
kidney
What is the microscopic anatomical unit of excretion found in the kidney?
Nephron

On the top on the kidney.
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
What organs aid excretion?
Excretion is performed through the large intestine through the anus and rectum, and by the kidney through the bladder and urethra. Excretion also occurs through the sweat glands and by the lungs through the bronchi and the nose and mouth.
Water excretion is regulated by the?
Nephron!
What is the functional portion or parenchyma of the kidney?
That would be the nephron.

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.
Is a nephron a molecule?
A Nephron is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney. It's not a molecule, more likely a small portion of the kidney that helps the kidney work.
What is the smallest unit of kidney?
Nephron
What is smallest unit of kidney?
Nephron
