- A small intertwined group of capillaries in the malpighian body; it filters the blood during urine formation
- (glomerular) of or relating to glomeruli
- (Glomerular) Pertaining to the glomerulus, a tiny structure in the kidney that filters the blood to form urine.
- (Glomerular) filtration rate (GFR) is the volume of fluid filtered from the renal glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule per unit time.
- (Glomeruli) Located in the cortex, glomeruli filter blood through capillary tufts surrounded by specialized epithelial cells called podocytes that cover the glomerular basement membrane and function as a blood filter. ...
- A tiny set of looping blood vessels in the kidney where the blood is filtered and waste products are removed.
- Latin glomerare = to roll up, from glomus = a ball of thread (cf. conglomeration).
- A cluster of neurons in the olfactory bulb that receives input from olfactory receptor neurons
- Gluh-MAIR-yuh-luhs/ A cluster of capillaries, particularly within the Malpighian body of the kidney, where each such cluster is enclosed in an envelope known as Bowman's capsule that filters the compounds excreted in urine out of the blood.
