ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Liquid and solutes of the blood must pass through multiple layers to move from the glomerular capillaries into Bowman’s space to ultimately become filtrate within the nephron’s lumen. Following the GBM, filtrate must pass through the epithelial layer of Bowman’s capsule, which is composed of podocytes.

Detailed explanation-2: -The transfer of fluid from the glomerulus to Bowman’s capsule transfers large molecules as easily as small ones. results from active transport. is very selective as to which subprotein-sized molecules are transferred.

Detailed explanation-3: -The glomerulus filters your blood As blood flows into each nephron, it enters a cluster of tiny blood vessels-the glomerulus. The thin walls of the glomerulus allow smaller molecules, wastes, and fluid-mostly water-to pass into the tubule. Larger molecules, such as proteins and blood cells, stay in the blood vessel.

Detailed explanation-4: -Blood pressure forces water and dissolved blood components through the pores of the capillaries, basement membrane, and on through the slit membranes between pedicels. The resulting fluid that enters the capsular space is called glomerular filtrate.

Detailed explanation-5: -fenestrated endothelium, basement membrane, filtration slits. The fluid in the glomerular capsule is formed by filtration at the glomerulus. The fluid is called . filtrate.
