Glomerulus is a tiny, tufted network of capillaries in the nephron of the kidney where blood filtration begins. It is surrounded by Bowman's capsule and is essential for ultrafiltration, forming filtrate that becomes urine. The term also appears in other biological contexts to describe similar knot-like network structures.
