Detailed explanation-1: -Bowman’s capsule is a cup shaped structure that contains tuft of capillaries which help in the filtration of blood.
Detailed explanation-2: -The cup-shaped structure of the nephron is Bowman’s capsule.
Detailed explanation-3: -It resembles a pouch or sac. It’s also described as being “cup-like.” The capsule is made up of two layers. One is the outer layer, called the parietal layer.
Detailed explanation-4: -The renal corpuscle is also known Malpighian body. It consists of cup like double walled structure known as Bowman’s capsule and the bunch of capillaries present in the Bowman’s capsule is known as glomerulus.
Detailed explanation-5: -The blood is filtered across the capillary walls of this tuft through the glomerular filtration barrier, which yields its filtrate of water and soluble substances to a cup-like sac known as Bowman’s capsule.
