Explanation

It is a large double walled cup. It lies in the renal cortex. It contains a tuft of capillaries called glomerulus and the outer wall is continuous, with the rest of the nephron. The space between the two walls of the Bowman's capsule is continuous, with the lumen of the next part of the nephron. The bowman's capsule and the glomerulus together constitutes the renal corpuscle or malpighian body.
