where would blood be found in the nephron
From the glomerulus, the filtrate passes through 4 segments of the nephron: 1  Proximal convoluted tubule: reabsorption of nutrients and substances that the body needs. 2  Loop of henle: thin-lobed structure that controls the concentration of the urine. 3  Distal convoluted tubule: regulates sodium, potassium and pH.
