What else can I help you with?
Where is the glomerulus filtrate?
The glomerulus filtrate is located within the Bowman's capsule, which is the initial part of the kidney tubule where the glomerular filtrate is collected before being processed further in the renal tubules.
What structure of the kidney receives urine first?
In fact, the kidney dose not receives the urine but it produces the urine by receiving the filtrate from the blood vessels . and the first part wich receives the filtrate is the " glomerus"
What is Glomular Filtrate?
Perhaps, you wanted to know about 'glomerular filtrate'. Glomerulus is a microscopic structure in the kidney, consisting of capillary networks. It is here where the actual filtration takes place. If you wring a wet towel, you can see how water is squeezed out. Likewise, in the glomerulus, high water (hydrostatic) pressure leads to filtration, and the filtrate is called glomerular filtrate.
The amount of primary filtrate produced by the kidney per minute is called?
The Glomerular Filtration Rate
What is the urine-producing unit in the kidney called?
Nephrons. This includes the glomerulus where the blood stream encounters a connective tissue filter, the loop of Henle where the filtrate is concentrated and salts are exchanged and the collecting duct into which urine is collected.
Is the glomerulus thought of as the filter of the kidney since it forms a fluid called filtrate or ultrafiltrate from the blood?
true
Where does the filtrate go after the kidney?
the urinary bladder.
Which thing are the constituents of kidney filtrate is reabsorbed by osmosis?
Water
After leaving the kidney where does the filtrate go?
Urine flows from kidney to the urinary bladder through ureters. Urinary bladder collects and from urinary bladder it goes outside the body through urethra
What are the two main regions in the internal structure of a kidney?
The two main regions in the internal structure of a kidney are the renal cortex and the renal medulla. The cortex is the outer region where most of the filtration of blood takes place, while the medulla is the inner region where urine is collected and transported to the renal pelvis.
What carries urine through the medulla of the kidney?
Urine is carried through the medulla of the kidney by structures called the renal tubules. These tubules are responsible for reabsorbing essential substances from the filtrate and concentrating urine before it is excreted from the body.
After leaving the kidney through ureters the urine is collected in a sac-like organ called?
The urinary bladder
