  2. Tubular fluid: from proximal convoluted tubule through distal convoluted tubular (substances has been removed or added by tubular cells)
  3. Urine: fluid that enters the collecting duct (undergoes little alteration beyond this point except for water content)
43
Q

A

Three membranes where fluid passes through
