    1. Filtration occurs in the glomerulus where blood is filtered, forming fluid that enters the Bowman's capsule. 2. Reabsorption in the renal tubules and collecting ducts reabsorbs essential substances like glucose and water back into the bloodstream. 3. Secretion moves additional substances like drugs and waste from the blood into the filtrate to further adjust urine composition.

    Live lab review:

    A summary of filtration, reabsorption, and secretion is as:

    1. Filtration occurs in the glomerulus of the kidney. Blood enters the glomerulus under

    high pressure, forcing water, ions, and small molecules like glucose and urea out of the blood

    and into the Bowman’s capsule, forming the Glomerulus and Bowman’s capsule in the nephron

    of the kidney.

    2. Reabsorption happens primarily in the renal tubules and collecting ducts. Essential

    substances like glucose, amino acids, ions, and most of the water are reabsorbed from the filtrate

    back into the bloodstream to maintain homeostasis.

    . Proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, and collecting

    duct in the nephron of the kidney. Secretion involves moving additional substances from the

    bloodstream into the filtrate to further adjust the composition of urine. These substances include

    ions, drugs, and waste products like urea and creatinine.

    Organs involved are Proximal convoluted tubule, distal convoluted tubule, and

    collecting duct in the nephron of the kidney.

    These processes collectively ensure that the body maintains proper fluid balance,

    electrolyte levels, and removes waste products efficiently through the production of urine.

    The arterial blood supply to the kidney comes from the renal arteries. Each kidney

    receives its blood supply from a single renal artery, which branches off directly from the

    abdominal aorta. The renal arteries then further divide into smaller arteries within the kidney,

    ultimately supplying blood to the nephrons, the functional units of the kidney where filtration

    and urine production occur. After passing through the nephrons, the blood is collected by the

    renal veins and returned to the systemic circulation via the inferior vena cava.

    In the liver, lobes are the large divisions separated by connective tissue, with the right

    lobe and left lobe being the main divisions.

    The blood supply to the kidneys originates from the renal arteries, which branch into

    segmental arteries, then interlobar arteries, and eventually into arcuate arteries.From the arcuate

    arteries, afferent arterioles branch off and lead to the millions of nephrons in the kidney.Each

    nephron consists of a renal corpuscle, which includes a glomerulus and Bowman’s capsule. The

    afferent arteriole enters the glomerulus to form the first capillary network, known as the

    glomerular capillaries.Filtration occurs in the glomerular capillaries, where blood pressure forces

    water, ions, and small molecules out of the bloodstream and into the Bowman’s capsule to form

    the initial filtrate.So, the sequence you described outlines the pathway of blood flow and the site

    of filtration in the kidney.
