the flow of blood through the nephron is : enters through the afferent arteriole, then flows through the glomerulus and into the efferent arteriole. Blood then enters the peritubular capillaries and the vasa recta and then flows through the cortex and medulla of the kidneys close to the tubules Answer: so the flow is afferent arteriole, efferent arteriole, peritubular capillaries, vasa recta
The vasa recta. It is the main capillary that collects the filtered blood from the afferent tubule.
peritubular cappilaries
peritubular capillaries
The efferent areterioles serving the juxtamedullay nephrons tend not to break up into preitubular capullaries. Instead they form bundles of long straight vessels called vasa recta that extend deep into the medulla paralleling the longest loops of Henle. The play and important role in forming concentrated urine. they also reclaim most of that filtrate
Potentilla recta was created in 1753.
Plecoptera recta was created in 1886.
Eublemma recta was created in 1852.
Blood flows through the kidneys in the following systematic way. It flows from Renal Artery to segmental artery to lobar artery to interlobar artery to arculate artery to interlobular artery to afferent arteriole to glomerular capillaries to efferent arteriole to peritubular capillaries to vasa recta to interlobular vein to arcuate vein to interlobar vein and finally to the renal vein.
vasa recta
La Recta Final was created in 1989.
