|
The movement of fluid from glomerulus to Bowman’s capsule is facilitated by
|
|
difference in the arterioles
|
|
|
presence of podocytes
|
|
|
minute pores in the capillary endothelium
|
|
|
none of these
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Several important mechanisms regulate smooth muscle in the afferent and efferent arterioles. In general, constriction of the afferent arteriole or dilation of the efferent arteriole will decrease pressure in the glomerular capillaries, creating less pressure driving filtrate into Bowman’s space.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glomerular filtration is the movement of fluids from the glomerulus into Bowman’s capsule because of glomerular hydrostatic pressure.
