Filtrate
The liquid that passes through a filter, separating it from suspended solids.
Bowman's Capsule
A cup-like structure in the kidney that encloses the glomerulus and is the beginning of the tubular component of the nephron.
Collecting Duct
A tube in the kidney that receives filtrate from several nephrons and conducts it to the renal pelvis.
- Detail the renal structure and the stages involved in the formation of urine in vertebrates.
- Acquire knowledge on the significance of particular cell types and structures in the nephron and their impact on renal processes.

Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
The correct sequence of structures through which filtrate passes in the kidney is: Bowman's capsule (1) → Proximal convoluted tubule (4) → Descending loop of Henle (6) → Ascending loop of Henle (5) → Distal convoluted tubule (3) → Collecting duct (2).
