Identify what part of urinary system. 1. The canal through which urine passes from the bladder to the outside of the body. 2. Low pressure capillaries that arise from the efferent arteriole and drains the glomerulus 3. Reclaiming useful substances such as water, glucose, amino acids, and ions from glomerular filtrate. 4. The double-walled cup at the end of a nephron that encloses a glomerulus; probably discovered by Dr. Bowman 5. Movement of substances such as hydrogen and potassium ions and creatinine that move from the blood of the peritubular capillaries through the tubule cells into the filtrate to be eliminated in urine.
