An important difference between the peritubular capillaries and the vasa recta in the kidney is that

B) only the vasa recta are supplied by efferent arterioles.
C) the vasa recta are involved in filtration, whereas the peritubular capillaries are involved in resorption.
D) the vasa recta are in the medulla, whereas the peritubular capillaries are in the cortex.
