What is the blood vessel that drains blood from the glomerulus?
Efferent arteriole takes the blood away from the glomerulus
Does the efferent arteriole take blood to the nephron?
No. I recieves blood from the afferent arteriole.
What arteriole supplies blood to the capillaries of the glomerulus?
afferent arteriole
An obstruction in the afferent arteriole would reduce the flow of blood into the?
efferent arteriole]
The blood vessel delivering blood directly to the glomerulus is the?
afferent arteriole
Which arteriole supplies blood to the capillary of the glomerulus?
The afferent arteriole supplies blood to the capillaries in the glomerulus of the kidneys. The efferent arteriole takes the blood away from the glomerulus.
In the kidney what structure that delivers blood to the glomerulus?
The afferent arteriole.
The blood vessels that exchange substances with the nephron?
The afferent arteriole.
What is the vessel that branches to form theglomerulus?
Afferent Arteriole carries blood into the Glomerulus, the Efferent Arteriole carries blood away.
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.
What the arteriole leads into the glomerulus?
efferent arteriole
What is the effect of reducing afferent arteriole radius on filtration rate?
As the afferent arteriole dilates it exposes the glomerulus to an increased blood pressure, closer and closer to that of the full systemic blood pressure. This increases GFR and Glomerular pressure. -6th Year Medical Student
