**Educational Text: Histology of the Urinary System**

**Labeling Nephron Components:**

In studying histology, it is critical to learn how to identify the key components of a nephron in the kidney:

1. **Renal Corpuscle**
2. **Tubules**

**Key Components to Label:**
- Capsular Space
- Glomerulus
- Parietal Wall of Glomerular Capsule

---

**Microscopic Images:**

1. **100X Magnification Image**:
   - Shows a broader view of kidney tissue.
   - Features multiple renal corpuscles scattered throughout the section.
   - Tubules are visible as elongated structures.

2. **400X Magnification Image**:
   - Provides a detailed view of a single renal corpuscle.
   - Shows the glomerulus: a dense collection of capillaries inside the renal corpuscle.
   - The capsular space surrounding the glomerulus is distinct.
   - The parietal wall of the glomerular capsule is seen encircling the capsular space.

**Task:** Label each of these structures on your diagram.

---

**Urine Formation Steps:**

**For Each Nephron Part:**
1. Identify the specific part based on the microscopic view.
2. List the specific step of urine formation occurring at that part.

This activity will help solidify your understanding of nephron anatomy and function, particularly in relation to its role in urinary system physiology.
