👉 Nephodia are a type of cell that is involved in the filtration of urine from the kidneys. They are primarily found in the kidney's glomerulus, which is the layer of tissue between the renal pelvis and the renal tubules. The nephroid cells, or nephiots, play a crucial role in this process by filtering waste products like urea, nitrogenous wastes, and excess water from the blood into the urine.
