Inside our body, millions of nephrons in the kidney filter wastes in 2 steps. Each nephron has a glomerulus and a tubule. Waste filtering undergoes 2 steps:
First, fluid and waste pass through the glomerulus but, proteins, blood cells, and other large molecules are prevented from passing through. Second, the filtered fluid passes through the tubule wherein the filtered wastes are removed; minerals are sent back to the body, and the remaining output becomes urine.
