Which is the correct order of urine production?
ACollecting duct -> tubule -> Bowman's capsule -> glomerulus
BGlomerulus -> Bowman's capsule -> tubule -> collecting duct
CTubule -> glomerulus -> Bowman's capsule -> ureter
DBowman's capsule -> glomerulus -> bladder -> ureter
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Glomerulus -> Bowman's capsule -> tubule -> collecting duct
1. Blood enters the glomerulus in the cortex.
2. Filtrate moves into Bowman's capsule.
3. It flows through PCT, loop of Henle and DCT.
4. Finally it enters the collecting duct and the pelvis.
