Detailed explanation-1: -The substances which are filtered out from the glomerulus are called glomerular filtrate. The glomerular filtrate is also known as nephric filtrate.
Detailed explanation-2: -The fluid that filters through the glomerulus and Bowman’s capsule (glomerular filtrate) is very similar to blood plasma without the proteins, and at this point not at all like urine.
Detailed explanation-3: -What is glomerular filtration? Glomerular filtration is the first step in making urine. It is the process that your kidneys use to filter excess fluid and waste products out of the blood into the urine collecting tubules of the kidney, so they may be eliminated from your body.
Detailed explanation-4: -The glomerulus filters water and small solutes out of the bloodstream. The resulting filtrate contains waste, but also other substances the body needs: essential ions, glucose, amino acids, and smaller proteins. When the filtrate exits the glomerulus, it flows into a duct in the nephron called the renal tubule.
Detailed explanation-5: -The proximal convoluted tubule receives filtrate from the glomerular capsule. Filtrate is fluid that has been removed from the blood. It contains salts, electrolytes, water, wastes, and more.
