Detailed explanation-1: -Therefore, we can say that the correct sequence is Glomerulus → Proximal Convoluted Tubule (PCT) → Henle loop → Collecting duct.
Detailed explanation-2: -After leaving the renal corpuscle, the filtrate passes through the renal tubule in the following order, as shown in the diagram: proximal convoluted tubule (red: found in the renal cortex) loop of Henle (blue: mostly in the medulla) distal convoluted tubule (purple: found in the renal cortex)
Detailed explanation-3: -Hence the correct order is ‘Glomerular filtration → Reabsorption → Secretion’.
Detailed explanation-4: -There are 3 main steps of urine formation: Glomerular filtration, Reabsorption Secretion. These processes ensure that only waste and excess water are removed from the body. Each nephron has a glomerulus, the site of blood filtration.
