What arteriole supplies blood to the capillaries of the glomerulus?
afferent arteriole
What makes up the renal portal system?
It is made up of the afferent arteriole which supplies blood to the kidneys. The glomerulus, which is the first capillary bed produces filtrate. The efferent arteriole takes blood from the kidneys. The peritubular capillary system, which is the second capillary bed reclaims most of the filtrate. Filtrate is what eventually becomes urine.
What is the blood vessel that drains blood from the glomerulus?
Efferent arteriole takes the blood away from the glomerulus
What feeds the glomerulus and what drains the glomerulus?
Blood enters the glomerulus through the afferent arteriole and drains through the efferent arteriole.
What is the arteriole that contains cleaner blood because it has been filtered by the glomerulus?
The efferent arteriole receives the blood that has been filtered by the glomerulus.
What type of blood vessel is likely to be found in glomerulus?
Ans: Different arteriole the different arteriole carries blood from the branch of the renal artery into the glomerulus, the different arteriole carries blood away from the glomerulus and back into the branch of the anal vein.
Where does the transition from an afferent arteriole to an efferent arteriole occur?
glomerulus. The afferent arteriole leads to a ball of capillaries called a glomerulus which is enclosed in a nephron structure called the glomerular capsule. Blood leaves the glomerulus by way of the efferent arteriole.
The blood vessel delivering blood directly to the glomerulus is the?
afferent arteriole
What structure within a capillary bed shunts blood from arteriole to venule?
Artery -> Arteriole -> Capillary -> Venule -> Vein
In the kidney what structure that delivers blood to the glomerulus?
The afferent arteriole.
What is the structure that drains blood from the glomerulus in the kidney?
The efferent arteriole.
What is the vessel that branches to form theglomerulus?
Afferent Arteriole carries blood into the Glomerulus, the Efferent Arteriole carries blood away.
