Question

What is the CORRECT sequence of the different parts of the nephron from Malpighian corpuscle?

Options

• PCT → descending limb of HL → ascending limb of HL → DCT → collecting duct.

• PCT → ascending limb of HL → DCT → vasa recta → collecting duct.

• PCT → ascending limb of HL → vasa recta →descending limb of HL → DCT.

• DCT → descending limb of HL → PCT → descending limb of vasa recta → collecting duct.

Answer 1

PCT→ descending limb of HL → ascending limb of HL → DCT → collecting duct.

Explanation:

The neck connects the Malpighian corpuscle to the renal tubule. The descending leg of the Renal tubule is made up of PCT and Henle's loop, and the ascending limb is connected to DCT, which is subsequently connected to the Collecting duct.
