10. Bowman’s capsule is actually the indented end of the convoluted tubule of the nephron.

11. Bright disease, inflammation of the structures in the kidney that produce urine: the glomeruli and the nephrons

12. Despite their microscopic size, the more than two million nephrons in your kidneys do a very impressive job.

13. The collecting ducts from various nephrons join together and release urine through openings in the tips of the pyramids.

14. 1. Aldosterones main effect is the raise the blood pressure by increasing sodium ion absorption in the nephrons leading to increased

15. In the early metanephros the anlagen of nephrons and the ampullar ends of the secondary ureter are marked by a high RNA-content.

16. Malpighian Corpuscle definition is - the part of a nephron that consists of a glomerulus and Bowman's capsule —called also Malpighian body.

22. Aldosterone, a steroid hormone with mineralocorticoid activity, is mainly recognized for its action on sodium reabsorption in the distal nephron of the kidney, which is mediated by the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC)

23. Bowman’s capsule, double-walled cuplike structure that makes up part of the nephron, the filtration structure in the mammalian kidney that generates urine in the process of removing waste and excess substances from the blood

24. The possible function of the epithelioid cells is being discussed refering to the fact that, contrarily to mammals, neither in aglomerular nor in glomerular kidneys of teleosts exists any topographical relation between epithelioid cells and macula densa, since the nephrons of marine teleosts have no distal tubular segment.
