Urine formation

Asked by Anu Pathak · 1 year ago

What are the three main processes involved in urine formation?

1 Answer

The three main processes involved in urine formation are:
  • Glomerular filtration: blood is filtered in the glomerulus
  • Tubular reabsorption: useful substances are reabsorbed into the blood
  • Tubular secretion: additional waste products are secreted into the filtrate
These processes occur in the nephrons of the kidneys and result in the production of urine.
