they are all the part of the kidney. The parts you mentioned are all present in a nephron. The proximal convoluted tubule and the distal c.t filter out excess liquid matter while the glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule help in ultra filteration of the blood. the loop of Henle is a support for the PCT and dct tubules.

All the above structure are the anatomical structure present in nephron. These all helps in the filtration on blood and checks the level of urea in our body.
Glomerulus – each glomerulus is a cluster of blood capillaries surrounded by a Bowman’s capsule.
Proximal Convoluted Tubule – near to glomerulus. It has permeable cell membranes that reabsorbs ions, nutrients, plasma proteins, viatamins and water. secretes some hydrogen ions.
Loop of Henle – It has an ascending and descending limb.
It reabsorbs water, Na+ and Cl-, secretes some H+ ions
Distal Convoluted Tubule – farthest from the glomerulus.
It helps in regular potassium excretion.
Hope it helps
