Textbook of normal histology: including an account of the development of the tissues and of the organs . Section of human kidney partia ly injected : a, interlobu-lar artery giving off afferent twig (6); c, efferent vesselpassing into intertubular capillaries {d); e, convolutedcapillaries of glomeruus ; /, ouier layer of Bowmans cap-sule, the nuclei of whose cells sh nv at g; h, uriniferoustubule in transverse section, i, ii oblique section. 194 NORMAL Pelvis Diagram of the kidney, showing the course of the uriniferous tubules and of the blood vessels; forconvenience the medulla is represented as greatly shortened. The various divisions of the tubule—Bowmans capsule, neck, proximal convoluted, spiral, descending and ascending limbs and loop ofHenlesloop, irregular, distal convoluted, arched collecting, straight collecting, and excretory duct—are indicated by their initial letters : a, e, and c, respectively the afferent, efferent, and capillaryblood-vessels ; s, stellate vein ; v r, vasae rectae. THE URINARY ORGANS. 195 with the outer layer of the capsule at the stalk of the glomerulus, atwhich point the vessels and the capsule are intimately united. Each uriniferous tubule begins within the labyrinth as thedilated capsule of Bowman. A greatly constricted neck, situatedat the pole of the Malpighian body opposite the position of thevascular stalk, leads into the first or proximal convoluted tubule,which is characterized by its co
