Solution
The correct option is C Glomerulus and Bowman's capsule
Malpighian body is a structure present at the beginning of a nephron which consists of a glomerulus and is surrounded by the Bowman's capsule. The Bowman's capsule expand at the end of the nephron and forms a cup shape. The glomerulus is a multiple branching of the afferent arteriole before rejoining to the efferent arteriole. Together the Bowman's capsule and the glomerulus are known as the Malpighian body. So, the correct answer is 'Glomerulus and Bowman's capsule'.
