Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
As the blood enters the glomerulus, the waste product that enter the glomerular space is called:
A
Urine
B
Stool
C
Feces
D
Filtrate
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Blood entering the glomerulus has filterable and non-filterable components. Filterable blood components include water, nitrogenous waste, and nutrients that will be transferred into the glomerulus to form the glomerular filtrate.

Detailed explanation-2: -As blood flows through the glomerulus, blood pressure pushes water and solutes from the capillaries into the capsule through a filtration membrane. This glomerular filtration begins the urine formation process.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.
