|
Water and most solutes in blood plasma moves across the wall of the capillaries into capsule and then renal tubule
|
|
|
Filtered fluid moving towards collecting duct
|
|
|
Solutes entering the glomerular capsule
|
|
|
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.
