The afferent arterioles are a group of blood vessels that supply the nephrons in many excretory systems.They play an important role in the regulation of blood pressure as a part of the tubuloglomerular feedback mechanism. The afferent arterioles branch from the renal artery, which supplies blood to the kidneys.The afferent arterioles later diverge into the capillaries of the glomerulus.he afferent arterioles are a group of blood vessels that supply the nephrons in many excretory systems.
Cortical nephrons have their Loop of Henle in the renal medulla near its junction with the renal cortex, while the Loop of Henle of juxtamedullary nephrons is located deep in the renal medulla; they are called juxtamedullary because their renal corpuscle is located near the medulla (but still in the cortex).June 2011). The nephron (from Greek Î½ÎµÏÏÏÏ - nephros, meaning kidney) is the basic structural and functional unit of the kidney. Its chief function is to regulate the concentration of water and soluble substances like sodium salts by filtering the blood, reabsorbing what is needed and excreting the rest as urine.
