PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -What is glomerular filtration? 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.

Detailed explanation-2: -The first step in urine production is glomerular filtration. In this process, water and most of the solutes in blood plasma pass through the wall of glomerular capillaries, first into the glomerular capsule and then into the renal tubule. The product of glomerular filtration is referred to as glomerular filtrate.

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.
