The nephrons are found in the kidneys (about 1 million in each kidney). These structures are responsible for filtering the blood and then reabsorbing wanted substances further â¦ down the nephron.
Each kidney contains about a million tiny structures called nephrons. A nephron has a cup-shaped Bowman's capsule leading into the renal tubule. The two sections of each nephron extend across the two different regions of the kidney:1  the Bowman's capsules are found within the outer cortex region. 2  the renal tubules run from the cortex into the darker medulla.ach kidney contains about a million tiny structures called nephrons.
