ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The Malpighian body or renal corpuscle and renal tubules are the two parts of a nephron. The renal corpuscle functions in the filtration of the plasma. The two components of renal corpuscles are the Bowmen’s capsule and the glomerulus.

Detailed explanation-2: -The nephron is divided into two portions, namely, the glomerulus and the renal tubule and helps in the removal of excess waste from the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Definition. Renal Corpuscle: Renal corpuscle refers to the cluster of glomerulus capillaries and the Bowman’s capsule, which encircles the glomerulus. Renal Tubule: Renal tubule refers to the long, tiny, convoluted tubules, which carry urine from the glomeruli to the renal pelvis.

Detailed explanation-4: -A renal corpuscle (also called malpighian body) is the blood-filtering component of the nephron of the kidney. It consists of a glomerulus-a tuft of capillaries composed of endothelial cells, and a glomerular capsule known as Bowman’s capsule.

Detailed explanation-5: -distal convoluted tubule (purple: found in the renal cortex) collecting tubule (black: in the medulla)
