Name the cell that is present only in the wall of Bowman\'s capsule but nowhere else in the body

Answer» Bowman\'s capsule is a cup-like sack at the beginning of the tubular component of a nephron in the mammalian kidney that performs the first step in the filtration of blood to form urine. A glomerulus is enclosed in the sac.\xa0The\xa0Bowman\'s capsule\xa0has an outer parietal layer composed of simple squamous epithelium. The visceral layer, composed of modified simple squamous epithelium, is lined by podocytes. Podocytes have foot processes, pedicels, that wrap around glomerular capillaries.
