(1a)

(i) Glomerulus:

The glomerulus filters blood to form a filtrate, which includes water, ions, and small molecules like glucose and amino acids, while retaining larger molecules such as proteins and cells.

 

(ii) Bowman’s Capsule:

The Bowman’s capsule collects the filtrate produced by the glomerulus and funnels it into the proximal convoluted tubule.

 

(iii) Proximal convoluted tubule:

The proximal convoluted tubule reabsorbs essential substances such as glucose, amino acids, and ions (e.g., sodium and chloride) from the filtrate back into the blood.

 

(iv) Distal convoluted tubule:

The distal convoluted tubule fine-tunes the reabsorption of ions and water, and it secretes additional waste products into the filtrate, helping to regulate electrolyte balance and pH.
