What is the main function of renal vein and renal artery and state the difference between both.
Answers
These veins also are responsible for draining blood from the ureter, which transports urine away from the kidneys to the urinary bladder. These veins should not be confused with the renal aorta. Unlike veins, the renal aorta delivers oxygenated blood to the kidneys.The renal artery brings blood to the kidney for filtration whereas the renal vein carries away filtered blood from the kidney.
Answer:
Oxygenated blood comes to the kidneys from the right and left renal arteries off the abdominal aorta. Deoxygenated blood leaves the kidneys via the right and left renal veins that run into to the inferior vena cava.The renal artery takes blood to the kidney. The renal vein takes blood away from the kidney. In the kidney, the waste product urea is filtered out of the blood.. So the main difference is in the amount of urea in the blood: high in the renal artery and low in the renal vein.
