To address your question, here's a basic picture of the glomerulus, from Gray's Anatomy. The afferent arteriole is in red, and the efferent arteriole in blue. The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) depends on the pressure difference between the two, which affects the hydrostatic pressure at the glomerulus. Constriction of the afferent arteriole decreases the blood flow into the glomerulus and thus the glomerular hydrostatic pressure, which leads to a decrease in GFR.
1. Vascular component: glomerulus capillary bed, afferent (to) and efferent (from) arterioles, and peritubular capillaries (efferent arterioles divide to become these, supply kidneys with O2 and nutrients and are important in exchanges between blood and tubular component during urine formation.2. Since the surrounding interstitial fluid is hypertonic to the filtrate in the descending limb, water is drawn out of the descending limb by osmosis and enters blood capillaries. The concentration of tubular fluid is thus increased, and its volume decreased, as it descends toward the tip of the Loop.
