As blood passes into and through the glomerulus, due to the high blood pressure coming into the kidney, water and other solutes, eg: urea, glucose, sodium, potassium and other electrolytes, are forced by pressure thru a membrane and into the nephron. Red Blood cells are too big to pass through this, and remain in the blood vessels, if you do have blood in your urine it can be a indicator of a problem in the kidney. This fluid then moves through the nephrons, the proximal convoluting tubule, the loop of Henle, the distal convoluting tubule and into the collecting duct. On the way, through passive and active osmosis, water, electrolytes are removed from the filtrate and back into the body, until the filtrate is the concentrated formula which then flows out the kidney to the bladder.
The fluid that precedes urine in the nephron is called filtrate. It is formed when blood is filtered in the glomerulus and then passes through the renal tubules where essential substances are reabsorbed and waste products are excreted to form urine.
After the nephron has processed blood, the final urine passes through the collecting ducts, where it is concentrated and further modified before moving to the renal pelvis. From the renal pelvis, urine travels through the ureters to the bladder, where it is stored until excretion. Once the bladder is full, urine is expelled from the body through the urethra.

Bowman's capsule is a cup-like structure in the nephron of the kidney that encases the glomerulus, a network of capillaries. Its primary function is to collect the filtrate produced during the filtration of blood, which includes water, ions, and small molecules, while retaining larger molecules like proteins and blood cells. This filtrate then passes into the renal tubule for further processing and urine formation.
The area of the kidney from which the ureters exit is called the renal pelvis. It is a funnel-shaped structure that collects urine from the kidney's collecting ducts before it passes through the ureters into the bladder.
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.
The nephron consists of the glomerulus, proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct. The glomerulus filters blood to form filtrate, which passes through the tubules for reabsorption of essential substances and secretion of waste products. The loop of Henle plays a crucial role in creating a concentration gradient in the kidney, while the collecting duct helps regulate the body’s water balance by reabsorbing water.
The cells lining the proximal tubules of the nephrons have a highly folded cell membrane on the lumen side of the tubule made of microvilli. This is referred to as a brush border and is important in increasing the surface area for reabsorption of components of the filtrate as it passes down the nephron.
The fluid that precedes urine in the nephron is called filtrate. It is formed when blood is filtered in the glomerulus and then passes through the renal tubules where essential substances are reabsorbed and waste products are excreted to form urine.
Salt is naturally known to absorb water and is used through out the body as a mechanism to retain water and to effectively absorb and transport it. This mechanism is shown well through a nephron ( kidney cell ) as the waste passes through the nephron the water is absorbed by the salt so we don't have to go to the toilet every 5minutes also the sodium, when working as an antagonist with potassium around a cell, stops the cell from becoming flaccid.
False
A short, simple answer is that urine is a by product of bodily waste. Kidneys filter impurities. If the kidneys do not do their job in filtering, there is build up in the renal tubules (an area of the renal system leading to the kidneys) and also in the bloodstream. This causes trouble in the body systemically and, if left untreated, can lead to numerous medical problems. In short, the kidneys are the body's filters. Urine is the after product of our body's waste once the kidney's have filtered it. Urine leaves our bodies as a sterile fluid. Angie RN
Urea in the blood is filtered by the glomerulus into the Bowman's capsule, then it travels through the proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct. Urea can be reabsorbed and recycled back into the blood at various points along the nephron.

The filtrate is the liquid that passes through the filter paper and contains the substances that have been filtered. The residue is the solid material that remains on the filter paper after the liquid has passed through.
A tap does not hold any liquid. The liquid simply passes through it.
