albumen. urea, mineral salts, water, glocose, amino acid.
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The main function of the glomerulus is to filter plasma to produce glomerular filtrate, which passes down the length of the nephron tubule to form urine.

Detailed explanation-2: -The glomerular filtrate contains urea, water, vitamins, fatty acids, water, glucose, nitrogen, salts, etc. The glomerular filtrate enters the nephrons for further filtration termed ultrafiltration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bowman’s capsule and the glomerulus make up the renal corpuscle. They are all parts of the kidney.

Detailed explanation-4: -The glomerular filtration assembly is composed of three main cellular barriers that are critical for the ultrafiltration process, the fenestrated endothelium, glomerular basement membrane and highly specialized podocytes.
