Detailed explanation-1: -In this process, the blood passes through the glomerulus under high pressure. This facilitates filtration of the blood plasma through the thin, porous epithelium of the glomerulus and Bowman capsule’s wall. Ultrafiltration takes place in the glomerulus.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Ultrafiltration is the removal of fluid from a patient and is one of the functions of the kidneys that dialysis treatment replaces. Ultrafiltration occurs when fluid passes across a semipermeable membrane (a membrane that allows some substances to pass through but not others) due to a driving pressure.
