Detailed explanation-1: -The capsule is made up of two layers. One is the outer layer, called the parietal layer. This layer is made of body tissue known as simple squamous epithelium. The inner layer of the capsule is the visceral layer, and it’s made up of cells called podocytes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bowman’s capsule is a part of the nephron that forms a cup-like sack surrounding the glomerulus. Bowman’s capsule encloses a space called “Bowman’s space, ” which represents the beginning of the urinary space and is contiguous with the proximal convoluted tubule of the nephron.

Detailed explanation-3: -The renal cortex is the outer part of the kidney. It contains the glomerulus and convoluted tubules. The renal cortex is surrounded on its outer edges by the renal capsule, a layer of fatty tissue.

Detailed explanation-4: -The renal corpuscle consists of a compact tuft of interconnected capillary loops called the glomerulus, and a balloon-like capsule, called Bowman’s capsule, into which the glomerulus protrudes. The Bowman’s capsule is found in the outer part of the kidney, the cortex.
