Question

6. Name the cluster of capillaries in the Bowman's capsules of the Nephron; Through which
it gets the initial filtrate for filtration?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The cluster of capillaries in the bowman's capsule of the nephron through which it gets the initial filtrate for filtration is called as glomerulus.

• Each kidney has large number of filtration units called nephrons.

• Each nephron have cup shaped of a coiled tube called bowman's capsule that collects filtrate.

• This capsule has cluster of capillaries called glumerulus.

• The glucose and water is selectively reabsorbed in the Henle's loop.

• The filtrate is then collected th Collecting duct.

• All the collected filtrate goes into urinary bladder through ureter.

• From urinary bladder, the urine is removed from the body through urethra.
