what structure forms a portal system with the glomerulus and consists of branches of efferent arterioles?
renal corpuscle
bowmans capsule
vasa recta
distal convoluted tubules
The vasa recta is a network of blood vessels in the kidney that forms a portal system with the glomerulus. It consists of branches of the efferent arterioles. The renal corpuscle includes the glomerulus and Bowman's capsule. Bowman's capsule is a cup - shaped structure that surrounds the glomerulus. The distal convoluted tubules are part of the renal tubule system and are not directly part of the portal system with the glomerulus formed by efferent arteriole branches.
