Identify the incorrect matching:

a) Peritubular capillaries - The efferent arteriole emerging from the glomerulus forms a fine capillary network around the renal tubule

b) Vasa recta - A minute blood vessel network runs parallel to the Henle's loop forming a 'U' shaped structure

c) Cortical nephrons- Vasa recta is absent or highly reduced.

ii. Nitrogenous wastes are absorbed by passive transport.
ii. Conditional re-absorption of Na+ and water takes place in DCT.
iv. DCT re-absorbs HCO3
