The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structure**: Understand that Bowman's capsule is a part of the nephron in the kidney and is responsible for the initial filtration of blood. 2. **Understand Blood Flow**: Recognize that blood enters the nephron through specific blood vessels. The blood supply to Bowman's capsule is crucial for its function. 3. **Differentiate Between Blood Vessels**: - **Afferent Arteriole**: This is the blood vessel that brings blood into the glomerulus, which is located within Bowman's capsule. - **Efferent Arteriole**: This vessel carries blood away from the glomerulus. - **Renal Vein**: This vein drains blood from the kidneys and does not supply blood to Bowman's capsule. - **Renal Portal Vein**: This is not present in humans and is involved in different circulatory systems. 4. **Conclusion**: The blood vessel that supplies blood into Bowman's capsule is the **afferent arteriole**. ### Final Answer: The blood vessel supplying blood into Bowman's capsule is the **afferent arteriole**. ---
