Glomerulus is Bowman's Capsule Constitute
O
Blood vessels​

Answer 1

Answer:

Bowman’s capsule, also called Bowman capsule, glomerular capsule, renal corpuscular capsule, or capsular glomeruli, double-walled cuplike structure that makes up part of the nephron, the filtration structure in the mammalian kidney that generates urine in the process of removing waste and excess substances from the blood. Bowman’s capsule encloses a cluster of microscopic blood vessels—capillaries—called the glomerulus, where wastes are filtered from the blood. Blood pressure forces plasma minus its macromolecules (e.g., proteins) from the glomerular capillaries into the Bowman’s capsule, which is continuous with the proximal convoluted tubule.

nephron of the kidney

Each nephron of the kidney contains blood vessels and a special tubule. As the filtrate flows through the tubule of the nephron, it becomes increasingly concentrated into urine. Waste products are transferred from the blood into the filtrate while nutrients are absorbed from the filtrate into the blood.
