Detailed explanation-1: -In the middle cortical area, the branches of the efferent arteriole run lateral to the glomerulus. However, the efferent arterioles of the inner cortex have a few branches which run lateral to the glomerulus while most of them descend into the medulla as vasa rectae.
Detailed explanation-2: -The glomerulus (A) is formed by the capillaries which arise from the afferent arteriole and then coalesce to form the efferent arteriole. They are known as the glomerular capillaries.
