where filtration takes place
glomerulus filtrate is created in capsule
blood and protein should not be present in filtrate
proximal convoluted where most reabsorption takes place
tubule (PCT) stuff is being put back into the blood
decending limb of reabsorbs water back into blood
nephron loop where the most concentrated filtrate is
ascending limb of reabsorbs sodium and chloride, which dilutes the
nephron loop filtrate
where secretion takes place
distal convoluted tubule secretion is movement of molecules from blood into
filtrate
the location in the kidney where processed filtrate,
collecting duct
called urine, is collected from the renal tubules
1. collecting ducts
2. renal papilla
3. calyces
the pathway of urine 4. renal pelvis
5. ureter
6. bladder

what is the functional unit nephron
of kedney?
function of nephron make urine
Where does filtration take renal corpuscle
place?
process that dilutes urine
counter current
creates a concentration gradient that allows for
