Which one of the following statements is INCORRECT?

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

The Malpighian corpuscle (renal corpuscle), proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), and distal convoluted tubule (DCT) of the nephron are situated in the cortical region (cortex) of the kidney, not in the medulla. The loop of Henle is the part of the nephron that dips into the medulla.

Therefore, the statement claiming that the renal corpuscle, PCT, and DCT are situated in the medulla is incorrect.

Answer: Renal corpuscle, proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), and distal convoluted tubule (DCT) of the nephron are situated in medulla of kidney.
