What else can I help you with?
What moves fluid and chemicals into the nephron?
Filtration at the glomerulus moves fluid and small molecules into the nephron. Subsequently, reabsorption and secretion processes move specific chemicals in and out of the nephron to regulate their concentrations in the body.
How does fluid move out of the glomerulus?
flitration
What is a cluster of blood capillaries which filters fluid?
I think the answer you are looking for is the glomerulus.
When fluid is filtered out of the glomerulus what part of the nephron does it enterfirst?
Bowman's capsule
What is the difference between glomerulus and Bowman's capsule?
The Glomerulus capsule and the Bowman's capsule both describe the same thing. Either name can be used interchangeably. Both describe the capsule that envelopes the gomerulus and filtrates the incoming blood.
The process of plasmalike fluid passing through the glomerulus to Bowman's capsule is called?
filtration
What does glomerular filtration contain?
a filtrate fluid that oozes from the glomerulus and is collected by the Bowman's capsule.
What is the correct order an excreted water molecule moves from glomerulus to collecting duct?
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.
Is the glomerulus thought of as the filter of the kidney since it forms a fluid called filtrate or ultrafiltrate from the blood?
true
What is surrounded by the Bowman's Capsule?
the glomerulus
Where is the site of the filtrate formation?
Glomerulus is the filter that makes the filtrate.
How much fluid filters through the glomerulus in a day?
About 180 L of fluid is filtered out but 178-179 get reabsorbed in the tubules so 1-2 L gets excreted as urine on a daily basis.
