Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the correct sequence for parts of the renal tubule?
A
Proximal convoluted tubule, nephron loop, distal convoluted tubule
B
Proximal convoluted tubule, vasa recta, distal convoluted tubule
C
Proximal convoluted tubule, distal convoluted tubule, nephron loop
D
Collecting duct, proximal convoluted tubule, distal convoluted tubule
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The proper sequence of the parts are-glomerulus, Bowman’s capsule, proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule.

Detailed explanation-2: -After leaving the renal corpuscle, the filtrate passes through the renal tubule in the following order, as shown in the diagram: proximal convoluted tubule (red: found in the renal cortex) loop of Henle (blue: mostly in the medulla) distal convoluted tubule (purple: found in the renal cortex)

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct answer is option (d) Proximal convoluted tubule, the loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, collecting duct. The renal tubule is a narrow tube connected to the renal corpuscle of a nephron where the processes of tubular reabsorption and tubular secretion occur.

Detailed explanation-4: -The nephrons of the kidneys process blood and create urine through a process of filtration, reabsorption, and secretion.

Detailed explanation-5: -proximal convoluted tubule (found in the renal cortex) loop of Henle (mostly in the medulla) distal convoluted tubule (found in the renal cortex) collecting tubule (in the medulla) collecting duct (in the medulla)
