In which direction do substance move during filtration?
A
Blood to Filtrate
B
Filtrate to Blood
C
Tubules to Capillaries
D
Tubules to Arterioles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The filtrate flows from the proximal tubule and into the Loop of Henle. The loop of Henle concentrates the filtrate, by removing more water from it, and passes it to the distal tubule. From the distal tubule it travels to the collecting duct-now called urine.

Detailed explanation-2: -Filtrate moves from Bowman’s capsule to the proximal tubule and into the loop of Henle, which dives into the renal medulla before returning to the renal cortex. From the loop of Henle, filtrate is transferred to the distal tubule and into the collecting duct, where it travels into the renal medulla for collection.
