PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -In the nephron, your blood is filtered by the tiny blood vessels of the glomeruli and then flows out of your kidney through the renal vein. Your blood circulates through your kidneys many times a day. In a single day, your kidneys filter about 150 quarts of blood.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Bowman’s capsule is the filtration unit of the glomerulus and has tiny slits in which filtrate may pass through into the nephron.

Detailed explanation-3: -Filtration occurs in the glomerulus of the nephron. The glomerulus is a capillary bed within the nephron, and filtration of fluid out of the glomerulus occurs both as a result of the structure of the nephron, and of Starling’s forces.
