What else can I help you with?
The renal corpuscle includes which parts of the nephron?
Bowman's capsule and glomerulus (capillary tuft).
What are the parts of a nephron in order?
The parts of a nephron in order are the renal corpuscle (glomerulus and Bowman's capsule), proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle (descending and ascending limbs), distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct.
What is the sequence of the nephron in order from glomerular?
From the glomerulus, the sequence of the nephron is proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle (descending and ascending limbs), distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct.
Where does the reabsorption of glucose primarily occur in the kidneys?
The reabsorption of glucose primarily occurs in the proximal convoluted tubule of the nephron in the kidney. Glucose is filtered out of the blood in the glomerulus, and then most of it is reabsorbed back into the bloodstream in the proximal convoluted tubule to prevent its loss in the urine.
Is creatinine reabsorbed by the proximal convoluted tubule?
No, creatinine is not actively reabsorbed by the proximal convoluted tubule. Instead, it is freely filtered at the glomerulus and excreted in the urine. The amount of creatinine excreted is used to estimate kidney function.
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.

What normally contains blood Bowman's capsule vasa recta loop of Henle collecting duct or proximal tubule?
The vasa recta. It is the main capillary that collects the filtered blood from the afferent tubule.
Which section of the tubule is connected to the glomerulus?
The Bowman's capsule surrounds the glomerulus, and the glomerulus filtrate enters the top of the nephron.
The sequence of structures that urea passes through in the nephron is?
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.
Are the glomerulus the glomerular capsule and the proximal convoluted tubule all located within the medulla region of the kidney?
Renal Papilla are found in the medulla, but the glomerulus is found in the renal cortex.
A nephon consists of a renal corpuscle and a what?
nephron consists of a cluster of blood capillaries called glomerulus and a renal tubule. now the renal tubule is swollen at one end and forms Bowman's capsule. the glomerulus surrounds this capsule and they together are called renal corpuscle. so the nephron consists of a renal corpuscle and a renal tubule. and the renal tubule is convoluted at first (also covered by blood capillaries) , then forms a U shape called "loop of henle" .then it ends into the collecting duct.
Renal tubules empty urine into the what?
glomerulus, Bowman's capsule, proximal and distal tubules, and the loop of Henle are all part of what?
