A loop of Henle can be found in one of the hundreds of thousands of nephrons contained within the kidneys. The loop of Henle dips down from the nephron into the medulla and then back into the cortex. The loop of Henle is part of a nephron, a tiny tube inside the kidneys that filters solutes. The loop of Henle allows the kidneys to maintain the correct balance of water in the body.
Confidence votes 284. The function of the ascending loop of henle is draw Sodium out of the filtrate. The ability of the ascending loop to actively transport sodium into the surrounding tissue is directly related to the amount of water that can be diffused out of the descending loop of henle.(main factor in water re-absorption).ixed answer. The descending limb of the Nephron Loop (loop of henle) is not permiable to sodium. It is permiable to Urea that diffuses from the permiable lower end of the col â¦ lecting tubule(CT).
