Nephron is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney there are approximately 1million nephrons in each kidney . Nephrons help to remove the toxic wastes and impurities out of the body through urine

A comparison the amount of filterate formed per day (180litres) with that of how much urine is released (1.5litres) it absorps almost 99 percent .of water back into the body
