Which of the following vessels takes blood out of the renal corpuscle and returns to the bloodstream?
a. Peritubular capillary system
b. Efferent arteriole
c. Vasa recta
d. Afferent arteriole

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Glomerulus receives the blood from the body through large-diameter arterioles called "afferent arterioles" and after filtration, the filtered blood is sent back to the bloodstream through the "efferent arterioles" with small diameter than afferent arterioles.

The efferent arterioles either carry the blood to  

1. Cortex: where it forms anastomotic capillaries or peritubular plexus.

2. Medulla: carry the blood to vasa recta in the medulla.

Thus, option B- efferent arterioles are the correct answer.
