What else can I help you with?
Is water in urine or glomerular filtrate?
Water is present in both urine and glomerular filtrate. Glomerular filtrate is the fluid that is filtered from the blood through the glomeruli in the kidneys, containing water, electrolytes, and small molecules. As this filtrate passes through the renal tubules, water is reabsorbed back into the bloodstream, and the remaining fluid, which becomes urine, contains a lower concentration of water and waste products. Ultimately, urine has a different composition than the original glomerular filtrate due to this selective reabsorption process.
What percent of the glomerular filtrate is reabsorbed?
the nephrons produce approx 150 litres of glomerular filtrate per day 99% of which is reabsorbed to leave an average of 1.5litres of urine.
The filtrate within the nephron becomes urine only when it passes through the distal convoluted tubules and enters the collecting ducts?
False
Difference between filtrate and urine?
Until the liquid reaches the renal pelvis, it is "glomerular filtrate," when it reaches the pelvis, it is called "urine"
WhaT is the difference between filtrate and urine?
The main difference between filtrate and urine is the chemical composition of the two. Filtrate has almost all the substance that blood plasma has except blood proteins while urine only contains waste substances.

What structure of the kidney receives urine first?
In fact, the kidney dose not receives the urine but it produces the urine by receiving the filtrate from the blood vessels . and the first part wich receives the filtrate is the " glomerus"
When less glomerular filtrate is formed what kind of urine is formed?
less urine is formed
Is water concentration in urine the same as glomerular filtrate or greater?
The water concentration in urine is generally lower than that in glomerular filtrate. During the filtration process in the kidneys, glomerular filtrate contains a high concentration of water, but as it passes through the renal tubules, water is reabsorbed, leading to a more concentrated urine. Therefore, urine typically has a higher concentration of solutes and a lower concentration of water compared to the initial glomerular filtrate.
Where does filtrate become a highly concentrated urine?
In the renal pelvis
What are two substances that are found in the filtrate but not in the urine?
Ions and nutrients
Substances absent from filtrate and urine?
Blood, proteins, and sugars are absent from the filtrate and urine of a healthy adult. If any of these are present it is a sign that something is not right and should be addressed right away.
