Answer 2

Question

Explain where and how urine is produced

Answer:

Blood passes through filtration units in the kidney called the nephron. It first passes through glomerulus in the Bowman's capsule by the process ofultrafiltration. The filtrate initially has glucose, amino acids, water, salts and nitrogenous waste. Then reabsorption occurs in which water (as per the need of the body), glucose and amino acids are all reabsorbed. The final step is secretion where excess water, salts and urea (nitrogenous waste) which makes up the urine are finally excreted out of the body.
