Asked by Aaradhya Kapoor · 1 year ago

What is the primary function of the nephron?

1 Answer

The primary function of the nephron is to filter blood and maintain homeostasis. This involves:
  • Filtration of blood in the glomerulus
  • Reabsorption of essential substances in the renal tubule
  • Secretion of waste products into the tubule
  • Concentration of urine
These processes help regulate blood composition, fluid balance, and waste elimination in the body.
