This page follows the diagram of the gross anatomy of the kidney and is related to the summary of the blood filtration processes within the kidney. It includes a simple diagram of a kidney nephron followed by short descriptions of the parts of the kidney nephron . Each human kidney contains around millions of nephrons . These structures are one of the most fundamental concepts that every student needs to study in Biology. The diagrammatic representation of Nephron is given below: Figure: Diagrammatic Representation of Nephron . Nephron is a basic microscopic structural and functional unit of the Kidney. Nephrons work on the principle of ultrafiltration for extracting and reabsorption of molecules. Learn more about the structure and function of nephrons in this article.
