The Loop of Henle establishes an osmotic gradient, which helps in water reabsorption and urine concentration.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 16: Excretory Products and their Elimination Urine Formation - Reabsorption and Secretion
The Henle’s loop helps concentrate urine by maintaining an osmotic gradient in the medulla.

Cortical nephrons have a shorter loop of Henle and are mainly involved in filtration, with limited urine concentration.
