The blood vessel that carries blood to the glomerulus is called the afferent vessel. But the glomerulus is not close ended nad the vessel that leaves it, called the efferent vessel, carries on beside the nephron and collects the components that are reabsorbed.

What is the function and location of the nephrons?

The nephrons are found in the kidneys (about 1 million in each kidney). These structures are responsible for filtering the blood and then reabsorbing wanted substances further down the nephron. Blood reaches the top of the nephron (called the glomerulus), and the smaller molecules, such as glucose, water, urea and ions diffuse across the glomerular membrane. Further down the nephron, at the convoluted tubules, the glucose and some of the water and ions are reabsorbed back into the bloodstream, either by diffusion or by active transport, if the substances need to go against a concentration gradient. What's left in the nephron is a mixture of excess water and ions, as well as the toxin urea. These pass out of the nephron and through the ureters into the bladder, as urine.


After filtering by the nephron where does the cleaned blood go?

Into the ureter.


Why is a molecule with only one functional group unable to undergo a condensation reaction to form a polymer?

A condensation reaction involves the loss of a small molecule like water or alcohol. If a molecule has only one functional group available for reaction, there is no additional site for the loss of a molecule, which is necessary to form a polymer chain. Hence, a molecule with only one functional group cannot undergo condensation polymerization to form a polymer.


Where does excess cerebrospinal fluid go?

Excess cerebrospinal fluid is usually absorbed by the bloodstream through a system of channels called arachnoid villi. These villi allow the fluid to be reabsorbed back into the circulatory system, maintaining the balance of fluid within the brain and spinal cord.

Where does the blood go from behind the eye when you have a hemorage behind the eye?

It gets reabsorbed into your system although it can take some time to happen.

Where does water that is in the large intestine go?

They are send to the other parts of your body in order to function well


Does the small intestine remove minerals and moisture from waste?

yes, after food is digested excess water or leftover watre is reabsorbed by the large intestine. Certain types of vitamins are also synthesiszed here, people who do not go to the wash room after long periods of time tend to have constipation because water is reabsorbed from the feces.
