GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Bowman’s capsule surrounds the glomerular capillary loops and participates in the filtration of blood from the glomerular capillaries. Bowman’s capsule also has a structural function and creates a urinary space through which filtrate can enter the nephron and pass to the proximal convoluted tubule .

Detailed explanation-2: -Bowman’s capsule and the glomerulus make up the renal corpuscle.

Detailed explanation-3: -The glomerulus and its surrounding Bowman’s capsule constitute a renal corpuscle, the basic filtration unit of the kidney.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Bowman’s capsule is a structure inside mammalian kidney where ultrafiltration takes place. The capsule is shaped like a cup, with a bundle of capillaries inside known as the glomerulus. Blood enters under high pressure through the afferent arteriole, which is is filtered through three different layers.
