Functioning of a nephron:
a. The blood enters the kidney through the renal artery, which branches into many capillaries associated with glomerulus.
b. The water and solute are transferred to the nephron at Bowman’s capsule.
c. In the proximal tubule, some substances such as amino acids, glucose, and salts are selectively reabsorbed and unwanted molecules are added in the urine.
d. The filtrate then moves down into the loop of Henle, where more water is absorbed.
e. From here, the filtrate moves upwards into the distal tubule and finally to the collecting duct. Collecting duct collects urine from many nephrons.
f. The urine formed in each kidney enters a long tube called ureter. From ureter, it gets transported to the urinary bladder and then into the urethra.

Hey mate!
Here is ur answer!
▪ The glomerular filtrate collected in the Bowman’s capsule further passes
through the nephron tubule where reabsorption of water and useful
molecules takes place.
▪ The remaining fluid containing the waste, forms the urine which
eventually enters long tube called the ureter. It is further stored in
the urinary bladder and from there it is thrown out through the urethra.
▪ As the bladder is muscular, it is under the control of nerves. As a
result, we can usually control the urge to urinate.
▪ An average person has around 5 litres of blood which the kidneys filter
about 400 times in a day. Kidneys filter out about 190 litres of filtrate
daily to produce 1-1.9 litres of urine, rest is reabsorbed.
Hope it's help you!
