An investigator is studying oxygen transport in experimental animals. it is found that Po2 in the renal vein is high compared to venous PO2 in other organs. What is the explanation?

a. counter-current multiplication in the kidneys allows them to use less O2 for ion transport than other organs
b. PO2 in renal artery is greater than PO2 in other arteries
c. The ratio of o2 consumption to blood flow is lower in the kidneys than in other organs
d. Renal blood flow is a smaller fraction of the C.O. than blood flow in other organs
e. Tissue Po2 is greater in every region of the kidneys
