What is the nature of fluid which collects in the cavity of Bowmann's capsule?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Bowman's Capsule**: Bowman's capsule is a part of the nephron, which is the functional unit of the kidney. It plays a crucial role in the filtration of blood. 2. **Filtration Process**: In the Bowman's capsule, blood filtration occurs. Blood enters the nephron through the afferent arteriole, where it is subjected to filtration. 3. **Nature of the Filtrate**: The fluid that collects in the cavity of Bowman's capsule is known as glomerular filtrate. This filtrate is primarily composed of water, electrolytes, and small molecules. ...
