उत्तर
- Glomerulus
- Malpighian capsule
- Bowman's Capsule
- Proximal Convoluted Tubule
- Collecting Duct
- Loop of Henle and Collecting Duct
- Proximal and Distal Convoluted tubule
- The efferent (outgoing) arteriole is thinner than the afferent (incoming). This creates significant hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus.
- Glomerulus
- Components of urine are water and solid waste (urea, creatinine, uric acid, etc.)
