What else can I help you with?
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 are the two main parts of a nephron?
The two main parts of a nephron are the renal tubule and the renal corpuscle. The renal tubule consists of the proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, and distal convoluted tubule, responsible for filtering and processing the blood. The renal corpuscle contains the glomerulus and Bowman's capsule, where blood is filtered to form urine.
The portion of the nephron closest to the renal corpuscle is the?
Proximal tubule
Cup shaped structure through which the fluid part of the blood is filtered?
The cup-shaped structure you are referring to is the renal corpuscle, which is part of the kidney's filtration system. Within the renal corpuscle, blood is filtered to remove waste products and excess substances, ultimately forming urine.
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.

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.
Capillary network within the renal corpuscle?
Glomerulus
Where the filtration of plasma takes place?
renal corpuscle
What do the glomerular capsule and the glomerulus make up?
NephronThe renal corpuscle also known as the Malpighian corpuscle.
What is the difference between the renal tubule and the renal corpuscle?
The renal corpuscle is composed of the Bowman's capsule and the glomerulus, the site of filtration. The renal tubule is composed of the proximal convoluted tubule, the loop of Henle, and the distal tubule. This is where reabsorption and secretion takes place as the filtrate is converted into urine.

What are the two layers of the glomerular capsule called?
Renal Corpuscle
What is the capillary network within the renal corpuscle?
peritubular capillaries
What section of the nephron filters blood plasma?
renal corpuscle
Is the glomerulus a knot of capillaries the lies within the renal corpuscle?
Yes
What structures filter blood in a kidney?
Renal corpuscle
