Nephron Structure & Urine Collection — NEET Biology

📚 Practice Concept
📖 NCERT Source

A hairpin shaped Henle's loop is the next part of the tubule which has a descending and an ascending limb. The ascending limb continues as another highly coiled tubular region called distal convoluted tubule (DCT). The DCTs of many nephrons open into a straight tube called collecting duct, many of which converge and open into the renal pelvis through medullary pyramids in the calyces.
