3 How do cortical nephrons and juxtamedullary nephrons differ structurally?
The cortical nephrons,from their name are almost entirely embedded within the cortex of the kidney.They have shortish loops of Henle that do not really extend far into the medulla. By contrast, the juxtamedullary nephrons have longs loops of Henle that do extend far into the medulla.The glomeruli of the juxtamedullary nephrons are typically close to the medulla (which is how these got their name)
