Structure and Function of the Nephron - A Plus Topper

Structure and Function of the Nephron Structure of Nephron Each nephron consists of a round malpighian body formed by Bowman’s capsule filled with capillary net work afferent and efferent arterioles. Afferent means incoming, Efferent means outgoing called Glomerulus or Malpighian corpuscles. The malpighian tubule is divided into 3 parts forming a shaped convoluted tubule. (A) The proximal […]

Cortical nephrons are the primary nephron type found in the kidney's outer cortex. They have a shorter loop of Henle and play a crucial role in maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance. The glomerulus filters blood to create the initial filtrate, while the renal tubules of cortical nephrons actively reabsorb essential substances. Additionally, cortical nephrons contribute to blood pressure regulation through specialized cells in the distal convoluted tubules.
