Starting with the glomerulus the regions of the urinary system that the filtrate must flow through are: (Please Note: not all structures need to be present, only that the sequence is correct)

a. glomerular capillaries – proximal convoluted tubule – ascending limb of the loop of Henle – minor calyx – urethra

b. Bowman’s space – proximal convoluted tubule – descending limb of t he loop of Henle, collecting duct - ureter

c. proximal convoluted tubule – major calyx – bladder - urethra

d. “a” and “b” are correct

e. All are correct

Explanation as well would be helpful
