The text describes an experiment where 3- and 5-year-old children were shown two objects that were identical except one was red and the other was blue. The children were then given one of the objects that was inside a tube so the child could feel, but not see, it. This experiment is one that was devised to test the concept of:
Filtration Membrane
A barrier consisting of multiple layers through which substances are filtered, commonly used in reference to the kidney's filtration apparatus.
Capillary Endothelium
The single layer of cells lining the interior surface of blood capillaries, involved in the exchange of materials such as oxygen and carbon dioxide between blood and tissues.
Podocytes
Specialized cells in the kidney that wrap around capillaries of the glomerulus, playing a key role in the filtration of blood to form urine.
Renal Tubules
Renal tubules are microscopic tubes in the kidney where filtered blood is further processed into urine by reabsorbing water and nutrients and secreting wastes.
