Structure of the NEPHRON- A-level Biology. Ultrafiltration and selective reabsorption in the kidney

Learn the structures of the nephron - renal capsule, proximal convoluted tubule, the loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule and the collecting duct. Learn how and where ultrafiltration occurs, selective reabsorption and how urine is formed.

Thank you! It’s amazing how much information you can impart in such a short time.

[@MissEstruchBiology]

ah thanks!

Hi Miss Estruch, Im a y13 student doing AQA exam board. Ive also got Selective Reabsorption of water as well and I think you might have missed that part maybe? Other than that everything else in this video has helped me understand alot more about this topic

[@AntipasStephen]

Thanks.
You are really of great help. Am in year 13

hi miss estruch , amazing video i just wanted to ask at 13:37 if water was to move out of the ascending limb wouldnt there be a concentrated solution ??

[@Anonymous-nr4iv]

Thank you for the video, it is really detailed and easy to comprehend.

[@MissEstruchBiology]

Glad it was helpful!

Do we have to know about podocytes in ultrarfiltration or is it extra detail?

[@MissEstruchBiology]

yeah, podocytes does come up on mark schemes sometimes

hiya whats the difference between this and the other nepron video

I added in details about the basement membrane and podocytes

[@dripdrop8894]

@@MissEstruchBiology thank you for updating :)

[@DanielWhite-lr9kl]

At 14:55, why would all of the sodium ions being actively transported out of the Loop of Henle mean that when the filtrate reaches the distal convoluted tubule it is dilute? Because as the ascending limb of the loop of henle is impermeable to water, wouldn't that mean that there is no opportunity for water to escape?

[@Anonymous-nr4iv]

Because in the ascending limb, solute (Na+) decreases while the volume of solvent (water) remains unchanged due to the water's impermeability, therefore the dilution (If you don't study chemistry, concentration is calculated by mole/volume)
