What else can I help you with?
Is a blood vessel carrying blood away from the heart an afferent or efferent blood vessel?
efferent
Is the vena cava an afferent or efferent blood vessel?
efferent
Is the aorta an afferent blood vessel?
No
Is the vena cava an afferent blood vessel?
No, it is efferent
What is the blood vessel that drains blood from the glomerulus?
Efferent arteriole takes the blood away from the glomerulus
What Blood vessel located between afferent and efferent arterioles?
Glomerulus capillary
What is the vessel that branches to form theglomerulus?
Afferent Arteriole carries blood into the Glomerulus, the Efferent Arteriole carries blood away.
What is the difference between afferent and efferent duct?
Afferent ducts carry fluid toward a particular organ or location, while efferent ducts carry fluid away from an organ or location. In the context of the male reproductive system, the afferent ducts transport sperm from the testes to the epididymis for storage and maturation, while the efferent ducts carry sperm from the epididymis to the vas deferens for ejaculation.
What is the difference between afferent and efferent arteries?
Efferent arteries take blood away from an organ and afferent arteries bring blood to an organ.
Difference between afferent and efferent in kidney?
Efferent means going away from and afferent is going toward. The afferent arteriole of the kidney carrys blood toward the glomerulus, whereas the efferent arteriole carrys blood away from the glomerulus.
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.
How could adjust the afferent or efferent radius to compensate for the effect of reduced blood pressure on glomerular filtration rate?
increase afferent radius or decrease efferent radius depending on the degree of change in blood pressure
