verebrae on posterior abdominal wall. Bean shaped organ.
- Process of urine function
- FILTRATION: > Water and solutes move from blood into capsule then tubule to form filtrate.
SELECTIVE REABSORBTION: > Filtrate constituents required to maintain body's fluid and
electrolyte balance are reabsorbed. SECRETION: > Transfer of substances from blood into tubular
fluid.
