In kidney of rabbit, the loop of Henle is part of
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D Uriniferous tubule
The uriniferous tubule is divided into the proximal tubule, the intermediate (thin) tubule, the distal tubule and the collecting duct. The loop of Henle's main function is to create a concentration gradient in the medulla of the kidney. By means of a countercurrent multiplier system, which utilizes electrolyte pumps, the loop of Henle creates an area of high urea concentration in the medulla, near the collecting duct.So, the correct answer is option D.
