Nephrons are oriented perpendicular to the surface of the kidney. Nephron loops (Henle loop) are partially or completely immersed in the medulla of the kidney. Cortical layer Collecting tubules pass through the medulla. This morpho-functional feature provides primary and secondary Medulla concentration of urine. Indicate in the image: 1. Vascular glomerulus 2. Capsule To the renal pelvis Img. 24. Scheme of the nephron 3. Proximal convoluted tubules 4. Distal convoluted tubules 5. Henle loop
