What is the Capillary network that surrounds the loop of Henle?
the vasa recta MasteringAandP = Vasa Recta
The name of the blood vessels that are found in the medulla as part of the vasa recta are the?
peritubular capillaries
The bowman's capsule contain a podocyte a vasa recta a fenestrated capillarry an efferent arteriole?
Vasca recta
A bowman's capsule does not contain?
A Bowman's capsule does not contain a vasa recta. Vasa recta are straight arteries coming off from arcades in the mesentery of the jejunum.
What normally contains blood Bowman's capsule vasa recta loop of Henle collecting duct or proximal tubule?
The vasa recta. It is the main capillary that collects the filtered blood from the afferent tubule.
Capillary loops located in the medulla are also known as?
Vasa Recta
The vasa recta is a specialized portion of the what?
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
The efferent arteriole carries blood from the glomerulus to the?
peritubular cappilaries
What is another name for vasa recta?
straight arterioles that follow the nephron loop
How do you distinguish jejunum and ileum in an operation?
jejunum •Thick wall •Many large folds •Wide lumen •Long vasa recta •Less fat •Redder ileum •Thinner wall •Fewer small folds •Narrower lumen •Short vasa recta •More fat
The net action of the vasa recta is to remove water from and dilute solutes in the interstitial fluid of the renal medulla?
False
What is the capillary loop that extend from the efferent arteriole and run along loop of henle of juxtamedullary nephrons?
Vasa Recta
