What is Bowman's capsule?

What is Glisson's capsule

Assertion: Glomerular filtration requires expenditure of energy by kidney. Reason: Glomerular filtration occurs because pressure in the glomerular capillaries is lower than the pressure in Bowman's capsule

Inner layer of Bowman's capsule consists of:

1. Osmolarity - (i) Glomerular filtrate 2. Defects in ADH - (ii) Milliosmoles 3. Enzyme inhibitors - (iii) Diabetes insipidus 4. Bowman's capsule - (iv) ACE inhibitors

Arrange the following structures in the order that a drop of water entering the nephron would encounter them. Afferent arteriole Bowman's capsule Collecting duct Distal tubule Glomerulus Loop of Henle Proximal tubule Renal pelvis

Indentify the biological term Homeostasis, excretion, glomerulus, urea, glomerular filtration, ureters, urine, Bowman's capsule, urinary system, reabsorption, micturition, osmosis, glomerular capillaries via efferent arteriole, proteins. Consists of the kidneys, ureters and bladder.

Identify the biological term. Excretion, glomerulus, urinary bladder, glomerular filtrate, ureters, urine, Bowman's capsule, urinary system, reabsorption, micturition, osmosis, proteins. (a) A liquid which gathers in the bladder. (b) Produced when blood is filtered in a Bowman's capsule. (c) Temporary storage of urine. (d) A ball of inter twined capillaries. (e) Removal of unwanted substances from the body. (f) Each contains a glomerulus. (g) Carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. (h) Scientific term for urination. (i) Regulation of water and dissolved substances in blood and tissue fluid. (j) Consists of the kidneys, ureters and bladder. (k) Removal of useful substances from glomerular filtrate. (l) What solute the blood contains that are not present in the glomerular filtrate?

Protein-free fluid is filtered from blood plasma into the Bowman’s capsule

The Bowman's capsule and the glomerulus together constitute the ......
