MT 30-BB (Histology Art 2024-2025) 1 year ago Nephrons are the kidney’s tiny filtration units that help clean the blood by removing waste and balancing water and electrolytes. The process starts with glomerular filtration, where small molecules like water, glucose, and urea get filtered out, while larger proteins and cells stay in the blood. Then, useful substances are reabsorbed in the tubules, and any extra waste or ions are secreted before the final urine is formed. This whole system keeps the body’s internal environment stable and prevents toxic buildup.
