The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each of the statements provided and determine their accuracy based on our knowledge of renal anatomy and physiology. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement A**: "Glomerulus is a tuft of capillaries formed by the afferent arterioles, which is a branch of renal vein." - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. The glomerulus is indeed a tuft of capillaries, but it is formed by the afferent arterioles, which are branches of the renal artery, not the renal vein. 2. **Statement B**: "Glomerulus along with the Bowman's capsule forms the renal corpuscle." - **Analysis**: This statement is correct. The renal corpuscle consists of the glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule, which encases the glomerulus. 3. **Statement C**: "Vasa recta is a fine branch of the afferent arteriole which runs parallel to Henle's loop." - **Analysis**: This statement is also correct. The vasa recta are indeed branches of the efferent arterioles of juxtamedullary nephrons and run parallel to the loops of Henle. 4. **Statement D**: "In human kidneys, cortical nephron and juxtamedullary nephrons are in equal proportion." - **Analysis**: This statement is incorrect. In human kidneys, cortical nephrons are more numerous than juxtamedullary nephrons. Cortical nephrons make up about 85% of the total nephrons, while juxtamedullary nephrons are fewer in number. ### Conclusion: Based on the analysis: - **Correct Statements**: B and C - **Incorrect Statements**: A and D ### Final Answer: The correct options are **B and C**.
