KIDNEY, NEPHRON, DRAWING


Formation of the urine. The water and different substances are filtered by tubes located in the kidney. The liquid enters from the interlobular artery to the Browman capsule, goes down by the proximal tubule into the anse de Henle then winds uo in the distal tubule and is ejected by the collecting tubule toward the bladder under form of urine. The tubes are surrounded of venules and arterioles that collect the necesary substances for the organism. The original liquid is constituted of water, sodium (in blue), potassium (in yellow), bicarbonate (in purple), urea (orange drop), glucose (in pink), acid (in green), proteins (in grey), and blood cells (in bordeaux). The organism rejects the substances that are not necessary to function, excepted the blood cells.
