What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the cluster of capillaries in the kidney where filtration occurs?
The cluster of capillaries in the kidney where filtration occurs is called the glomerulus. The glomerulus is part of the nephron, which is the functional unit of the kidney responsible for filtering blood to form urine.
What fault occurs at a convergent boundary.?
A reverse fault
Do kidneys have filtration and absorption properties?
Yes, the kidneys have both filtration and absorption properties. Filtration occurs in the glomerulus, where blood is filtered to remove waste products and excess substances. Absorption occurs in the renal tubules, where essential substances are reabsorbed back into the bloodstream.
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
Where and how does process of glomerular filtration occur?
it occurs in the glomerulare (Bowman's) capsule.
Where does filtration of blood occurs?
Filtration of blood occurs in the kidneys, specifically in the glomerulus within the nephron. The glomerulus filters waste and excess substances from the blood into the renal tubules for further processing and excretion as urine.
Why is kidney dialysis a good example of the application of substance transport through the cell membrane?
Kidney dialysis involves the removal of waste products and excess fluid from the blood using a dialysis machine. It mimics the process of filtration and selective transport that occurs in the kidneys, where substances are transported across the cell membrane to maintain electrolyte balance and remove waste from the body. The dialysis membrane acts as a selective barrier that allows waste products and excess fluids to be removed while retaining essential nutrients and substances in the blood.
Filtration occurs at the -------- part of the nephron?
Filtration occurs at the glomerulus, which is the initial part of the nephron where blood is filtered to form the filtrate that will eventually become urine.
What is the reverse of the condesation?
Evaporation is the reverse of condensation. Evaporation occurs when a liquid changes to a gas.
Where does filtration occurs in the kidney?
On the top on the kidney.
What occurs when urinary organs don't work?
You would require dialysis to remove the waste products from your blood stream.
What are the differences between filtration and re absorption in the kidneys?
Filtration occurs when blood is filtered in the glomerulus to form filtrate, which contains water and small molecules. Reabsorption happens when essential substances are reabsorbed from the filtrate back into the bloodstream, such as water, glucose, and ions. Filtration is a passive process driven by blood pressure, while reabsorption is an active process that requires energy to move substances against their concentration gradients.
