Question

The force for glomerular filtration is the -

pick one-

-fluid pressure produced by the displacement of the fluid in the lumen of the tubules.

-ATP-dependent processes in the nephron.

-blood pressure in the glomerular capillaries.

-None of the answers are correct.

osmotic pressure in the glomerular capillaries.

Answer 1

Answer :- blood pressure in the glomerular capillaries.

Explanation : The main driving force for glomerular filtration is the Blood pressure in the capillaries of the glomerulus.Other pressure involves in glomerulus filtration is Plasma-colloid osmotic pressure and Bowman's capsule hydrostatic pressure.

Glomerulus membrane consist of 1. Wall of glomerular capillary.
2. Acellular layer (basement membrane).
3. Inner layer of Bowman's capsule ( from which blood passes and filtered )

glomerular filtration is the filtering of everything except plasma proteins and formed Elements ( RBC,WBC and platelets) .....
