| 21. | Sodium is then circulated to the kidney where the plasma undergoes filtration by the renal glomerulus.
|
| 22. | The afferent arterioles, then, enter Bowman's capsule and end in the glomerulus.
|
| 23. | The afferent arterioles form the glomerulus ( network of capillaries enclosed in Bowman's capsule ).
|
| 24. | Unlike most other capillary beds, the glomerulus drains into an efferent arteriole rather than a venule.
|
| 25. | In a mammalian olfactory system, a single dendrite from a mitral cell enters a single glomerulus.
|
| 26. | However, in fish, one or more dendrites from mitral cells enter one or more glomerulus.
|
| 27. | As soon as binding occurs to the glomerulus, via interaction with properdin, complement is activated.
|
| 28. | "' Glomerulosclerosis "'refers to a hardening of the glomerulus in the kidney.
|
| 29. | This mass equals the mass filtered at the glomerulus as nothing is added or removed in the nephron.
|
| 30. | A secondary glomerulus is formed ventral to each of these, and the complete group constitutes the pronephros.
