Solution
The correct order of the renal circulatory vessels as blood would pass through them is:
- Renal artery
- Afferent arteriole
- Glomerulus
- Efferent arteriole
- Peritubular capillary network
- Renal vein
The renal artery brings blood into the kidney. This blood then flows into the afferent arteriole. The afferent arteriole carries the blood to the glomerulus where filtration occurs. The filtered blood then leaves the glomerulus through the efferent arteriole. From the efferent arteriole, the blood goes into the peritubular capillary network. Finally, the blood leaves the kidney through the renal vein.
