Practice Question

Which of the following structures drains oxygen-depleted blood from the kidneys?

Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

Renal vein

Rationale:

➡️ The renal vein is responsible for carrying oxygen-depleted, filtered blood away from the kidneys to the inferior vena cava, where it returns to the heart.

➡️ After the blood is filtered through nephrons, removing waste and excess substances, it exits via the renal vein.

➡️ This structure plays a critical role in the systemic circulation and detoxification process.
