An Introduction to the Alexander Technique. The Alexander Technique is a psychophysical learning process using conscious thinking to restore coordination and/or prevent mis-coordination in human functioning. What F.M. Alexander (1869-1955) observed empirically, is that the relationship between head and spine in movement is a key factor in vertebrate coordinationâa fact that has subsequently been verified scientifically.
A glomerulus and its surrounding Bowman's capsule constitute a renal corpuscle, the basic filtration unit of the kidney.
Renal tubules are essential structures in the kidneys. This lesson explores the function of the renal tubule and its parts, including the proximal and distal convoluted tubules, the loop of Henle, and the collecting duct.Learn how these components work together to absorb materials and form urine.roximal Convoluted Tubule. The filtrate in the Bowman's space I just mentioned enters the first duct in the renal tubule. This duct is called the proximal convoluted tubule, which is a section of the renal tubule located in the kidney's cortex that is responsible for the reabsorption of the majority of ultrafiltrate.
