Question

Part not belonging to uriniferous tubule is

• A. Glomerulus
• B. Henle's loop
• C. Distal convoluted tubule
• D. Connecting tubule

Answer 1

The correct option is A Glomerulus

The nephrons along with collecting ducts are called as uriniferous tubule. The nephron is the structural and functional unit of the kidney. The body of the nephron is divided into Bowman's capsule, PCT, Henle's loop and DCT. Hence glomerulus does not belong to the uriniferous tubule. Glomerulus are the tuft of capillaries present in the Bowman's capsule.

So, the correct answer is 'Glomerulus'.
