Trace the path glucose will travel from ghe renal artery to the the renal vein.( Be sure to include all anatomical structurea that glucose will travel through.)

Solutions

Expert Solution

Blood containing glucose enters renal artery followed by the interlobar arteries prompts to actuate artery an then into interlobular artery which in turn flows into afferent arterioles followed by glomerular capillaries for filtration. Then the fluid flows into efferent arterioles followed by peritubular capillaries or vasa recta and then into interlobular vein, arcuate vein and interlobar vein respectively for reabsorption process in Henle’s loop and distal convulated tubule. After the retention of necessary nutrients, proteins, cells, glucose, etc., in the collecting duct,excess glucose and other waste substances are ejected out through the renal vein in the collecting duct.
