Document Summary
The primary function of the renal corpuscle is the filter blood. Blood plasma in the glomerular capillaries forced int the capsular space due to high blood pressure found in the glom. The presence of proteins in the glomerular filtrate is a problem because it means that there has been damage to the glomerular capillary endothelium and proteins will leak into the urine. These are needed by the body so when they are filtered into the kidney, so when they enter the. Ovulation is necessary for fertilization to take place because, during ovulation the follicle that holds the mature ovum, ruptures and it is released. Produced in testes and stored there then go from tip of epididymis to the ductus deferens to the urethra. Accessary sex organs produce fluid to carry the sperm. Ovum is released from the ovary and caught in the oviduct: site of fertilization of the ovum by a spermatozoa.
