Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ is the movement of water, small solutes, & ions across a filtration membrane out of the glomerular capillary blood plasma into capsular space.
A
Net filtration pressure
B
Colloidal osmotic pressure
C
Glomelular filtration
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process by which glomerular filtration occurs is called renal ultrafiltration. The force of hydrostatic pressure in the glomerulus (the force of pressure exerted from the pressure of the blood vessel itself) is the driving force that pushes filtrate out of the capillaries and into the slits in the nephron.

Detailed explanation-2: -Liquid and solutes of the blood must pass through multiple layers to move from the glomerular capillaries into Bowman’s space to ultimately become filtrate within the nephron’s lumen.

Detailed explanation-3: -As blood flows through the glomerulus, water and some solutes in the blood are filtered into the Bowman’s capsule, creating an ultrafiltrate of blood. This filtrate then travels through the renal tubules, where urine is ultimately produced.
