Question

Why is the nephron called the filtering unit of kidney?

Answer 1

Each of your kidneys is made up of about a million filtering units called nephrons. Each nephron includes a filter, called the glomerulus, and a tubule. The nephrons work through a two-step process: the glomerulus filters your blood, and the tubule returns needed substances to your blood and removes wastes.

Answer 2

Hi

The filtering units of your kidneys are called nephrons. There are over a million nephrons in each kidney. Nephrons clean your blood by removing excess water, biological waste and other metabolites. They also help to return important electrolytes to your body so they are not lost in urine.
