Kidney, confocal light micrograph
Confocal light micrograph of a section through a kidney showing glomeruli (pink and yellow) surrounded by supporting tissue. The function of the glomeruli is to filter waste products from the blood. After the reabsorption of certain substances elsewhere in the kidney, the liquid is transported to the bladder as urine.
