Final answer:

The Loop of Henle is not part of the renal corpuscle; it is part of the renal tubule system that follows the Bowman's capsule and glomerulus.

Step-by-step explanation:

The renal corpuscle is part of the nephron, and it consists of the Bowman's capsule and the glomerulus. The components of the renal corpuscle do not include the Loop of Henle, which is found between the proximal and distal convoluted tubules and is part of the renal tubule system, not the renal corpuscle. Therefore, the correct answer to the question 'Which of the following is not part of the renal corpuscle?' is c. Loop of Henle.
