Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct order of urine flow from the renal corpuscle is: proximal convoluted tubule (6), descending limb of nephron loop (4), ascending limb of nephron loop (1), distal convoluted tubule (3), papillary duct (7), minor calyx (5), renal pelvis (8), and finally the ureter (2).
