Detailed explanation-1: -Endothelial cells of glomerular capillaries, the podocytes wrapped around them, and the fused extracellular matrix these cells form altogether comprise the glomerular filtration barrier, a dynamic and highly selective filter that sieves on the basis of molecular size and electrical charge.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glomerular filtration will allow most things in a blood capillary to filter out into the glomerulus except for blood cells and large plasma proteins. The glomerulus is selective based off of the size and charge of molecules in the blood.
Detailed explanation-3: -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.
