Afferent arterioles. 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.
Consider the afferent arteriole. Afferent always means a road IN, while efferent always means the way out. So this arteriole is a connector between the (interstate highway) _renal artery_ and the (residential street) capillaries of a nephron's glomerulus.
