What is the structure of glomerulus?

The glomerulus is a cluster of capillaries that can be found in the kidney. Each cluster is next to a Bowman's capsule, which is the "filter unit" of the nephron. Blood passes from the renal artery into the glomerulus at high pressure, allowing small substances to diffuse into the nephron, via the Bowman's capsule.
