Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A renal corpuscle is made up of the loop of capillary networks called the glomerulus, and the blind end of the nephron which is called the bowman's capsule. The combined basement membrane of these two structures makes up the glomerular basement membrane.
The Vasa recta, on the other hand, is a capillary loop in the renal medulla, running parallel to the loop of Henle.
You may use the diagram below as a visual reference for the structure on a renal corpuscle.
