renal artery, segmental arteries, interlobar arteries, arcuate arteries, cortical radiate arteries, afferent arterioles, glomerulus, efferent arteriole, peritubular capillaries, venules, interlobar veins, arcuate veins, interlobar veins, renal vein.
The kidney functions only because of presence of nephrons. In a nephron, afferent vessels take blood into the kidneys, whereas the efferent vessels take blood away from the nephrons.
Where these two vessels meet is known as a vasa recta.

Renal vein
It goes from the renal arteries to the kidneys, after which the renal veins return the blood to the inferior vena cava.

Pathway of glucose and other molecules from renal artery to renal vein is the following . 1 renal artery , 2 arcuate artery ,3 interlobular artery , 4 afferenr renal arteriole , 5 glomerulus , 6 efferent renal arteriole , 7 peritubular network of capillaries including vasa recta , 8 interlobular vein , 9 arcuate vein and 10 renal vein .
The renal artery carries blood to the kidney, and the renal vein carries blood that has been purified by the kidney.
The renal artery - "renal" being the Latin word for kidney.
the renal artery. :) Micaela U. Sanchez
Afferent - go into the glomerulus and efferent - go out of glomerulus
The renal artery takes blood to the kidney. The renal vein takes blood away from the kidney. In the kidney, the waste product urea is filtered out of the blood. So the main difference is in the amount of urea in the blood: high in the renal artery and low in the renal vein.
Renal vein.
The renal artery carries blood into the kidneys while the renal vein drains the blood.
The renal artery supplies blood to the renal system, or the kidneys. The renal artery differ with the renal vein in containing the less concentration of co2 and more concentration of urea
The renal artery delivers blood to the kidneys.
The blood in the Renal Vein:* Is low in oxygen. * Returns to the heart. The blood in the Renal Artery:* Has high amounts of oxygen. * Is pumped from the heart.
renal artery contains a higher percentage of oxygen as compared tro the renal vein. it also contains a higher percentage of urea as compared to the renal vein as all the urea has been filtered away for excretion in the kidney.
