Explain why blood pressure is higher in glomerular capillaries than in other systemic capillaries. (Module 24.8B) Blood pressure is higher in glomerular capillaries because the efferent arteriole drains into peritubular capillaries. Blood pressure is higher in glomerular capillaries because less proteins enter the afferent arterioles. Blood pressure is higher in glomerular capillaries because the distal convoluted tubule constricts the afferent arteriole. Blood pressure is higher in glomerular capillaries because the kidneys are in close proximity to the renal arteries. Blood pressure is higher in glomerular capillaries because the efferent arteriole has a smaller diameter than the afferent arteriole.
