Final answer:

A Bowman's capsule does not contain a vasa recta.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Bowman's capsule does not contain a vasa recta. The vasa recta is actually a network of peritubular capillaries that surround the loop of Henle in the kidney, helping to maintain the concentration gradient in the medulla.
