Answer:
Their nephron loop is closely wrapped with vasa recta.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cortical nephrons are located in the cortex.
They form 85% of all the nephrons in the kidney. They are located mostly within superficial cortex of kidney. The loop of henle of a cortical nephron is relatively short and hence not closely wrapped with vasa recta. Efferent arteriole delivers blood to a network of peritubular capillaries.
