Each kidney has nearly two million complex tubular structures called nephrons 4. Glomerulus is a tuft of capillaries formed by the efferent arteriole – a fine branch of renal artery

Options

  1. ABoth 1 and 3 is correct
  2. BBoth 1 and 2 is incorrect
  3. COnly 2 is correct
  4. DOnly 4 is correct

Correct answer

C. Only 2 is correct

Step-by-step solution

Each kidney has nearly one million complex tubular structures called nephrons. Each nephron has two parts – the glomerulus and the renal tubule. Glomerulus is a tuft of capillaries formed by the afferent arteriole – a fine branch of renal artery. Blood from the glomerulus is carried away by an efferent arteriole.
