Question

why co2 is not filtered during the filteration of the blood by the nephron ??

Answer 1

• Nephron is the basic structural and functional unit of kidney. It acts as filters and removes the waste products from blood and forms urine. After filtration, the reabsorption of essential ions and water takes place.

• Nephron specifically filters our blood to remove the nitrogenous waste and balance out the salt.

• Carbon dioxide and metabolic water produced in respiration easily diffuse into the environment from respiratory surfaces.
