Detailed explanation-1: -Bowman’s capsule and the glomerulus make up the renal corpuscle. They are all parts of the kidney. Your kidneys have many important jobs, including controlling the pH balance of your blood, regulating blood pressure and maintaining electrolyte balance.
Detailed explanation-2: -The renal corpuscle consists of a cluster of capillaries, called the glomerulus, surrounded by a double-layered epithelial cup, called the glomerular capsule. An afferent arteriole leads into the renal corpuscle and an efferent arteriole leaves the renal corpuscle.
Detailed explanation-3: -The glomerulus and Bowman’s capsule together form the renal corpuscle. As mentioned earlier, these glomerular capillaries filter the blood based on particle size. After passing through the renal corpuscle, the capillaries form a second arteriole, the efferent arteriole.
