Detailed explanation-1: -The Malpighian body or renal corpuscle and renal tubules are the two parts of a nephron. The renal corpuscle functions in the filtration of the plasma. The two components of renal corpuscles are the Bowmen’s capsule and the glomerulus.
Detailed explanation-2: -The nephron consists of the renal corpuscle and the renal tubule. The nephron is responsible for filtration, excretion and resorption. It filters out small molecules from plasma, selectively re-absorbs most of the water, and some of the molecules, and also secretes some secretory products into the filtrate.
Detailed explanation-3: -The glomerulus is the site in the nephron where fluid and solutes are filtered out of the blood to form a glomerular filtrate. The proximal and distal tubules, the loop of Henle, and the collecting ducts are sites for the reabsorption of water and ions. More items •17-Jan-2023
