glomerulus, Bowman's capsule, proximal and distal tubules, and the loop of Henle are all part of what?
The parts of a nephron in order are the renal corpuscle (glomerulus and Bowman's capsule), proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle (descending and ascending limbs), distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct.
The glomerulus contains blood. The others form urine and it's waste products.
Bowman's capsule and glomerulus (capillary tuft).
It goes from the glomerulus to the bowman's capsule, to the proximal convoluted tubule, to the loop of henle, to the distal convoluted tubule, to the collecting duct.
The Loop of Henle is situated in the Kidney. It is a part of the nephron.

the primary function of the ascending loop of henle in the kidney
From the glomerulus, the sequence of the nephron is proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle (descending and ascending limbs), distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct.
The proximal convoluted tubule drains into the loop of Henle.
The major process that occurs in the loop of Henle is the reabsorption of water and electrolytes, such as sodium and chloride. The loop of Henle creates a concentration gradient in the kidney that is necessary for the formation of concentrated urine.
