Bowman's capsule

It consists of two structures: a glomerulus and a Bowman's capsule.

When these two structures contact each other, they form the glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule surrounding it.

The three types of filtration carried out in the Bowman's capsule are:

Apart from the Bowman's capsule, other anatomical structures named after him include:

The blood is filtered through the capillaries of the glomerulus into the Bowman's capsule.

The Bowman's capsule contains a dense capillary network called the glomerulus.

In the other end, the renal tubules give rise to Bowman's capsules and glomeruli.

At the young age of 25, he identified what then became known as the Bowman's capsule, a key component of the nephron.

The glomerulus is surrounded by Bowman's capsule.

Urine passes from the Bowman's capsule into tiny tubules that lead to large collecting tubes in the center of the kidney.

The Bowman's capsule, also called the glomerular capsule, surrounds the glomerulus.

The Bowman's capsule empties the filtrate into a tubule that is also part of the nephron.

The Bowman's capsule has an outer parietal layer composed of simple squamous epithelium.

The Bowman's capsule is named after Sir William Bowman, who identified it in 1842.

Renal corpuscle: Liquid enters the nephron system at the Bowman's capsule.

The podocytes are sometimes considered the "visceral layer of Bowman's capsule", rather than part of the glomerulus.

The Bowman's capsule surrounds each glomerulus, and collects the filtrate that the glomerulus forms.

A glomerulus and its surrounding Bowman's capsule constitute a renal corpuscle, the basic filtration unit of the kidney.

A 'glomerulus' is a capillary tuft surrounded by Bowman's capsule in nephrons of the vertebrate kidney.

Each nephron begins in a renal corpuscle, which is composed of a glomerulus enclosed in a Bowman's capsule.

At the vascular pole, the afferent arterioles and efferent arterioles enter the Bowman's capsule.

Although freely filtered not all PAH crosses into the primary urine within Bowman's capsule.

As a result, the filtrate leaving the Bowman's capsule is very similar to blood plasma in composition as it passes into the proximal convoluted tubule.

Conveying towards a center, for example the afferent arterioles conveying blood towards the Bowman's capsule in the kidney.

The glomerular blood pressure provides the driving force for water and solutes to be filtered out of the blood and into the space made by Bowman's capsule.
