Bowman's capsule
The Bowman's capsule is the part of the nephron that filters substances from the glomerulus. It surrounds the glomerulus and is responsible for collecting the filtrate that is produced.
The glomerulus
The glomerulus and the tubules.
Filtration occurs at the glomerulus, which is the initial part of the nephron where blood is filtered to form the filtrate that will eventually become urine.
Blood is filtered through the glomerulus of the nephron in the kidney. The glomerulus acts as a specialized cluster of blood capillaries that allows small molecules such as water, salts, and waste products to pass into the nephron for urine formation.

The vascular part of the nephron in the kidney is called the renal corpuscle. It consists of the glomerulus, a network of capillaries, and Bowman's capsule, a structure that surrounds the glomerulus. This is where the process of blood filtration in the kidney begins.
