Summary Introduction

The collecting duct is where urea and water, along with a few other unabsorbed molecules, is collected and passed down the ureter then to the bladder.

Introduction:

The nephrons are the structural as well as functional unit of the vertebrate kidneys. Renal corpuscle (Malpighian body) and a renal tubule are the two components of the nephron. A renal corpuscle consists of a glomerulus surrounded by a glomerular capsule (Bowman's capsule). All glomeruli are located in the cortex. The renal tubules are located in both the cortex and the medulla.
