The kidneys remove toxic substances from the blood. The main substance that the kidneys filtrate from the blood is known as urea.

The waste in your blood is removed by the kidneys. The kidneys filter your blood all day every day
Glomerulus is the filter that makes the filtrate.
When arterial blood pressure drops and/or when the NaCl level of the filtrate is low.
It is made up of the afferent arteriole which supplies blood to the kidneys. The glomerulus, which is the first capillary bed produces filtrate. The efferent arteriole takes blood from the kidneys. The peritubular capillary system, which is the second capillary bed reclaims most of the filtrate. Filtrate is what eventually becomes urine.
Nephrons are the basic functional unit of the kidneys. They take in blood through an afferent arteriole and filter it inside the Bowman's capsule in a series of capillaries called glomeruli. It is the walls of the glomeruli that contain the membrane, more accurately called semi-permeable membrane, that removed the serum from the blood to produce the filtrate that will eventually become urine.
The Kidneys, where the blood/urea thing takes place.
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is removed from the blood by being broken down and cleared by the kidneys. It is filtered out of the blood by the kidneys and then excreted in the urine.
It does not contains the white or red blood cells. It does not contain the proteins also. It is abnormal to find the proteins in this filtrate.
The kidneys are the excretory and regulatory organs in the body. The kidneys contain over a million nephrons which are the functional units of the kidneys. Each nephron contains a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule. The renal corpuscle consists of capillaries called the glomerulus, enclosed by a capsule called Bowman's capsule. The blood is filtered in the glomerulus and the filtrate travels through the renal tubules were materials needed by the body is reabsorbed while the wastes are collected and excreted in the urine.Kidneys
Urea is the substance derived from protein metabolism that is removed from the blood in the kidneys and excreted in urine.
In a healthy individual, red blood cells are not normally present in the renal filtrate as they are too large to pass through the filtration barrier of the kidneys. The renal filtrate primarily consists of water, electrolytes, glucose, and waste products such as urea and creatinine.
