What types of cells make up the kidneys?
The kidney has many different cellular structures. The kidney's blood supply is formed by endothelial cells, myoepithelial cells, pericytes, and smooth muscle cells. There is also connective tissue within the kidney so you will find fibroblasts. Within the hilum of the kidney you can find adipose tissue so therefore you will find adipoctes. Then you have the kidney parenchyma. Within the glomerulus you will find bowman's capsule epithelial cells, mesangial cells, and podocytes. Right outside the glomerulus there are juxtaglomerular cells adjacent to the macula densa cells within the distal convoluted tubule of the kidney.(These cells function as sensors and control kidney activity) You will also find renal tubular cells which change from the proximal convoluted tubule, descending limb of the loop of henle, ascending thin limb of the loop of henle, thick ascending limb, distal convoluted tubule and then into the medullary collecting ducts. In these ducts you have two types of cells principal cells and intercalated cells. Then as you follow the formation of urine into the minor calyx of the kidney you begin to see transitional epithelial cells. In terms of embryonic origin the ureteric bud(derived from endoderm) gives rise to the cells from the bladder up to the collecting duct system of the kidney. The rest of the kidney comes from the metanephros(a mesodermic derivative).

What is the function of the glomerulus and the bowmans capsule?
The glomerulus and bowmans capsule are part of the excretory system, and they are found in the nephron of a kidney. The function of the glomerulus and the bowman's capsule is to filter the substances in the blood. The glomerulus is a tangle of capillaries which have little slits in them. Water, salts, glucose and urea pass through the slits into the bowmans capsule, which leads to kidney tubules. Then, as the kidney tubules are surrounded by capillaries, the useful substances (all glucose, some salts, most water) are re-absorbed, and only urea and some salts carry on to be excreted.

What C-shaped structure in the nephron surrounds the glomerulus?
Bowman's Capsule
A cup-like structure that encases the glomerulus is?
bowmans capsule
Do blood cells pass from the glomerulus to Bowmans capsule?
Yes, filtered blood from the glomerulus passes to the Bowman's capsule also called the renal capsule.
Which layer of the bowmans capsule do the special cells known as podocytes belong?
visceral
What is renal corpuscle made of?
The kidney.vasa recta
Where does the word bowmans capsule came from?
Bowman's capsule is named after Sir William Bowman (1816-1892), a British surgeon and anatomist.
The thin barrier at the Bowmans capsule allows for the filtration of what?
Glomular filtrate, blood plasma
In the nephron where does glomerular filtration take place?
Glomerulus (Renal Corpuscle)
Why does a rattlesnake bite cause blood to appear in the urine?
Rattlesnake venom breaks down the walls of glomerulus. The glomerulus is part of the nephron which is located in tour kidneys. The glomerulus filters your blood and the un needed material gets sent to the bowmans capsule in the nephron. The the gunk from the bowmans capsule makes its way into the urine. So when a rattlesnake bites you the blood goes right into you bowmans capsule making its way into the urine.
What is the C-shaped structure surrounding the glomerulus that acts as a filter in the formation of urine?
Bowmans capsule
