Answer the following question given this paragraph: 

Nephrons and Vessels The renal artery first divides into segmental arteries, followed by further branching to form interlobar arteries that pass through the renal columns to reach the cortex (Figure 25.9). The interlobar arteries, in turn, branch into arcuate arteries, cortical radiate arteries, and then into afferent arterioles. The afferent arterioles service about 1.3 million nephrons in each kidney.


Q: The afferent arterioles service about 1.3 million of what in each kidney?

 Choices:

- dendrites

- axons

- neurons

- nephrons

A:
nephrons
