Bowman's capsule 6 of 13 The first, coiled region of the tubule after the bowmans capsule, found in the cortex Proximal convuluted tubule 7 of 13 Long loop of tubule that creates a very high solute concentration in the tissue fluid. Loop of henle 8 of 13 a Second twisted tubule wherethe fine-turning of the wate rbalance of the body takes place.
