Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
During the process of ultrafiltration, water glucose and sodium
A
do not pass through the glomerulus walls
B
pass from the p.c.t into the blood
C
move through the basement membrane
D
enter the collecting duct
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Formation of urine-Ultrafiltration The high hydrostatic pressure forces passes small molecules, such as water, glucose, amino acids, sodium chloride and urea through the filter, from the blood in the glomerular capsule across the basement membrane of the Bowman’s capsule. This process is called as ultrafiltration.

Detailed explanation-2: -The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is the extracellular matrix component of the selectively permeable glomerular filtration barrier (GFB) that separates the vasculature from the urinary space.
