Detailed explanation-1: -Each kidney contains about one million tiny units called nephrons. Each nephron is made up of a very small filter, called a glomerulus, which is attached to a tubule. As blood passes through the nephron, fluid and waste products are filtered out.
Detailed explanation-2: -The liver helps you by taking toxins (substances in the body that are actually like poisons) out of your blood.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The bean-shaped kidneys filter waste products out of the bloodstream and dispose of them by creating urine. Urine is made of these waste products dissolved in water.
Detailed explanation-5: -The blood enters the kidney through the renal artery. This artery splits into many small arterioles to reach the nephron. It passes through the small glomerulus in each nephron where the blood gets filtered. The clean blood leaves the kidney through the renal vein.
