What is the capillary network within the renal corpuscle?
peritubular capillaries
Is the glomerulus a knot of capillaries the lies within the renal corpuscle?
Yes
Which is a renal disease in which substances from the immune response to the streptococcus bacterium collect in the capillary network of the nephron?
renal disease in which substances from the immune response to the streptococcus bacterium collect in the capillary network of the nephron
What is the ball of specialized capillaries within a kidney nephron where renal filtration occurs?
a ball , tightly coiled capillaries within a kidney nephron where renal filtration occurs
What is the network of capillaries surrounding the renal tubule?
The glomerulus are a network of capillaries surrounding the renal tube. peritubular capillary beds
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 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.
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.
Does the renal corpuscle have a fenestrated capillary?
Yes, the renal corpuscle contains fenestrated capillaries. These specialized capillaries, known as glomerular capillaries, have small pores that allow for the filtration of blood while retaining larger molecules like proteins and cells. This structure is crucial for the kidney's filtration process, enabling the formation of urine while maintaining the necessary balance of substances in the blood.
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 are Components of the renal corpuscle?
The renal corpuscle consists of the glomerulus, which is a network of capillaries, and the Bowman's capsule, which is a cup-shaped structure that surrounds the glomerulus. Together, these components are responsible for the initial filtration of blood in the kidney.
