hey!

^_^

▪it's due to:-
The glomerulus of each superficial nephron is located in the outer region of the cortex.

Its loop of Henle is short, and its efferent arteriole branches into peritubular capillaries that surround the nephron segments of its own and adjacent nephrons.

The blood returns to the cortex in the ascending vasa recta.

____

The ions that need to be excreted as waste are secreted from the capillaries into the nephron to be sent towards the bladder and out of the body.

the peritubular capillaries reabsorb useful substances such as glucose and amino acids.

this secrete certain mineral ions and excess water into the tubule.
