The structure that actually produces urine in the process of eliminating waste and excess substances from the blood is known as a nephron. Each human kidney contains around 1,000,000 nephrons. The renal corpuscle is made up of the capsule and glomerulus.
Kidney's structural and functional unit is the nephron. Filtration, reabsorption, secretion, and excretion of helpful and toxic compounds present in the blood are the basic functions of the kidneys.
