Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Any small molecules such as water, glucose, salt (NaCl), amino acids, and urea pass freely into Bowman’s space, but cells, platelets and large proteins do not.
Detailed explanation-2: -Protein-free fluid is filtered from blood plasma into the Bowmans capsule.
Detailed explanation-3: -So, the correct answer is ‘Plasma proteins’.
