Why is the efferent arteriole narrower than the afferent arteriole????? |
|
Answer» Thanks pranali ?? The efferent arteriole carries blood away from the glomerulus. Because it has a smaller diameter than the afferent arteriole, it creates some resistance to blood flow, producing the back-up of blood in the glomerulus which creates higher pressure in the glomerular cavity. |
