How To Draw A Nephron?

Draw a long, thin line for the renal tubule

Add a round Bowman’s capsule at one end

Draw a small ball of capillaries inside the capsule for the glomerulus

Extend the tubule from the capsule to form the proximal convoluted tubule

Draw a U-shaped loop for the loop of Henle

Continue the tubule upward to form the distal convoluted tubule

Draw the tubule leading into a collecting duct

Add nearby blood vessels if needed

Label the glomerulus, Bowman’s capsule, proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, and collecting duct
