Urine formation occurs in 3 stages. The 1st phase is glomerularxwhich occurs in the tuft of capillaries in the Bowman’sCapsule. Blood flowing through the glomerulus is filtered of itscontents with dissolved materials forced into the Bowman’sCapsule. Some substances such as largexremain in the blood stream. The next phase in urine production isx. This occurs in thexconvoluted tubule and loop of Henle.The 3rd phase of urine production is tubule x whichoccurs in thexconvoluted tubule.
Urine formation occurs in 3 stages. The 1st phase is glomerular [Filtration] which occurs in the tuft of capillaries in the Bowman’sCapsule. Blood flowing through the glomerulus is filtered of itscontents with dissolved materials forced into the Bowman’sCapsule. Some substances such as large [Proteins] remain in the blood stream. The next phase in urine production is [Reabsorption]. This occurs in the [Proximal] convoluted tubule and loop of Henle.The 3rd phase of urine production is tubule [Secretion] whichoccurs in the [Distal] convoluted tubule.
