GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Each of your kidneys is made up of about a million filtering units called nephrons. Each nephron includes a filter, called the glomerulus, and a tubule. The nephrons work through a two-step process: the glomerulus filters your blood, and the tubule returns needed substances to your blood and removes wastes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Each nephron is composed of a renal corpuscle (glomerulus within Bowman’s capsule), a proximal tubule (convoluted and straight components), an intermediate tubule (loop of Henle), a distal convoluted tubule, a connecting tubule, and cortical, outer medullary, and inner medullary collecting ducts.

Detailed explanation-3: -The formation of urine occurs in the renal pyramids. Renal pyramids are small structures that comprise several tubules and nephrons and it forms a part of the renal medulla. Urine passes through renal pyramids into the renal pelvis. The renal pyramid transport fluid into the kidney through the tubules present in it.
