Renal Blood Supply

Which of the following BEST describe the structural difference between a renal artery and a renal vein?

• Renal Arteries carry oxygenated blood. Renal Veins carry deoxygenated blood.

• Renal Veins carry oxygenated blood. Renal Arteries carry deoxygenated blood.

• Renal Arteries have thicker muscular walls than veins.

• Renal Arteries carry waste-rich blood. Renal Veins carry "clean" blood.

• Renal Veins have thicker muscular walls than renal arteries.

Which of the following BEST describe the functional difference between a renal artery and a renal vein?

• Renal Arteries carry oxygenated blood. Renal Veins carry deoxygenated blood.

• Renal Veins carry oxygenated blood. Renal Arteries carry deoxygenated blood.

• Renal Arteries have thicker muscular walls than veins.

• Renal Arteries carry waste-rich blood. Renal Veins carry "clean"/filtered blood.

• Renal Veins have thicker muscular walls than renal arteries.

How do blood vessels networks allow kidney's to perform their function?

• Arteries allow for waste-filled blood to enter the kidneys and be filtered (cleaned). Veins allows for the filtered blood to return to the body.

• Veins allow for waste-filled blood to enter the kidneys and be filtered (cleaned). Arteries allows for the filtered blood to return to the body.

• Veins allow oxygen-filled blood to be delivered to the kidney. Arteries allow oxygen-poor blood to be taken away from the kidney.

• Arteries allow for CO2-filled blood to enter the kidneys so that the CO2 can be filtered out (cleaned). Veins allows for the the now oxygen-rich filtered blood to return to the body.

• Arteries allow oxygen-filled blood to be delivered to the kidney. Veins allow oxygen-poor blood to be taken away from the kidney.
