About 180 liters of fluid is filtered by your kidneys per day. You pass about one to three liters of urine. Rest of the fluid is reabsorbed by your kidneys.

The glomerulus.
first both wastes and needed materials,such as glucose,are filtered out of the blood.then,much of the needed material is returned to the blood,and the wastes are eliminated from the body
renal vein
The structure that filters the blood in the kidneys is the nephron, or more specifically the glomerulus.
all the components of blood get to the kidney to be filtered..however: red blood cells, and platelets are the only parts of blood that are not filtered. there have been cases of glucose being filtered (inn diabetics). Things filtered include, plasma (water), urine, salts, protein and foreign bodies!

Renal capillaries, aka the glomerulus, where nitrogenous wastes and excess water in the blood plasma diffuse over to the nephron to be filtered and excreted.
renal vein
Blood is purified when it enters a nephron through the artiole, impurities are filtered out and emptied into the collecting duct. The purified blood exits the nephron through the venule. Hope it helps ;)
Nephrons are located in the kidneys. Each kidney has about one million nephrons. The nephrons filter your blood. Glucose is filtered through the nephrons just as everything else in your body is filtered.
Blood is constantly flowing through the kidneys and being filtered by the nephron. Different parts of the nephron cause reabsorption OS specific electrolytes, like Potassium and Sodium.
