Step-by-step solution

Cortical nephrons have a short loop of Henle that extends only very little into the medulla (A matches III). Juxtamedullary nephrons have a very long loop of Henle that runs deep into the medulla (B matches I). The Malpighian corpuscle, along with the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) and distal convoluted tubule (DCT), is situated in the cortical region of the kidney for all nephrons (C matches II). The vasa recta is a minute vessel that runs parallel to the Henle's loop forming a 'U' shape (D matches IV). Therefor
