Detailed explanation-1: -The substances which are filtered out from the glomerulus are called glomerular filtrate. The glomerular filtrate is also known as nephric filtrate.
Detailed explanation-2: -Blood flows into and away from the glomerulus through tiny arteries called arterioles, which reach and leave the glomerulus through the open end of the capsule. In the renal corpuscle, fluid filters out of the blood in the glomerulus through the inner wall of the capsule and into the nephron tubule.
Detailed explanation-3: -Blood enters the glomerulus through the afferent arteriole at the vascular pole, undergoes filtration in the glomerular capillaries, and exits the glomerulus through the efferent arteriole at the vascular pole.
Detailed explanation-4: -The substances that are filtered into the glomerular capsule are waste molecules nutrient molecules and water .
