A diagram of the structure of a nephron. The efferent arteriole, branching from the renal artery, enters the nephron at a network of capillaries called the glomerulus. Blood exits the glomerulus through the efferent arteriole. The filtered blood plasma enters the renal tubule starting at a hollow spherical structure called the Bowman's capsule. The tubular fluid flows out of Bowman's capsule and into the proximal convoluted tubule. The tubule is folded and twisted into a number of bends and…
