Which one of the following parts of the nephron are lined with cuboidal epithelium with very few microvilli?
- AProximal convoluted Tubule
- Correct answerBDistal Convoluted Tubule
- CBowman's capsule
- DGlomerulus
Solution
In a nephron, PCT has cuboidal epithelium with microvilli. Hence there is maximum absorption at PCT. DCT has cuboidal epithelium with low microvilli, Bowman's capsule has squamous epithelium and Glomerulus is a tuft of fenestrated capillaries with squamous epithelium.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
