Nephronit consists of aGlomerulus, Bowman's Capsule and renal tubules(which contains Proximal convulated tubule, DIstil Convulated , andloop of Henle)Main Function of Nephron is filtration of Bloodin glomerulus filtration occurs due to osmotic pressure differencebut this filtrate also contains some useful substances like glucose, mineral ionsthese substances are reabsorbed in the loop of Henle
1.FILTRATION:Urine formation begins with the process of filtration, which goes on continually in the renal corpuscles . As blood courses through the glomeruli, much of its fluid, containing both useful chemicals and dissolved waste materials, soaks out of the blood the blood through the membranes (by osmosis and diffusion) where it is filtered and then flows into the Bowman's capsule. This process is called glomerular filtration. The water, waste products, salt, glucose, and other chemicals that have been filtered out of the blood are known collectively as glomerular filtrate.2.REABSORPTION:Reabsorption, by definition, is the movement of substances out of the renal tubules back into the blood capillaries located around the tubules (called the peritubular copillaries). Substances reabsorbed are water, glucose and other nutrients, and sodium (Na+) and other ions. Reabsorption begins in the proximal convoluted tubules and continues in the loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubules, and collecting tubules3.SECRETION:Secretion is the process by which substances move into the distal and collecting tubules from blood in the capillaries around these tubules .
