| Nephrons | Tiny funnel with a convoluted stem There are million then a million microspic units |
| Composed of two principle components | Nephrons |
| Renal Corpuscle and Renal Tubule is a component of what? | Nephron |
| Renal Corpuscle can be divided into two parts, what are they? | Bowman Capsule and Glomerulus |
| Bowman Capsule | The cup-shaped top of a nephron [ the saclike Bowmans Capsule surrounds the Glomerulus |
| Glomerulus | A network of blood capillaries tucked into the Bowmans Capsule |
| Glomeruli | Plural form for Glomerulus |
| Renal Tubule can be divided into four parts, what are they? | Proximal convoluted tubule, Nephron Loop, Distal Convoluted Loop, and Collecting Tubule |
| Proximal Convoluted Tubule | The first segment of a renal tubule [Its called PROXIMAL because it lies nearest to the tubules origin from the Bowmans capsule, and its called CONVOLUTED because it has several bends] |
| Nephron Loop | The extension of the proximal tubule [Consists of a straight descending limb, a hairpin loop, and a straight descending limb] |
| Distal Convoluted Loop | The part of the tubule distal to the ascending limb of the nephron loop [The extension of the ascending limb] |
| Collecting Tubule | A straight part of a renal tubule [Distal tubules of several nephrons join to form a single collecting tubule] |
| Tubule | Duct |
| Located in the kidneys cortex is what structures? | Renal Capsule, Distal and proximal convoluted tubules |
| Located in the kidneys medulla is what structures? | Nephron Loop and collecting tubules |
