Please help. :3 Distinguish between cortical and juxtaglomerulan nephrons.

Juxtaglomerulan extends down into medulla (super long Loop of Henle). Corticla remains in the cortex (shorter Loop of Henle) Apparently the site is restarting in a minute...SO hope this helps!

Apologies - made a couple of typos. Juxtamedullary* I believe is the proper term. Juxtaglomerular does have something to do with the kidneys (namely, the RAAS hormone control system) but isn't the right term in this case. And cortical*, not corticla.

they are all spelled different!!
