    What causes the liquid part of blood filter out form glomerulus into the renal tubule?

    A)  Diapedesis

    B)    Pelvis

    C)    Hydrostatic pressure

    D)    Dialysis

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Ultra filtration takes place through basement membrane of glomerulus due to the glomeruler hydrostatic pressure (GHP) i.e., 70 mm Hg. Blood colloidal osmotic pressure (BCOP) i.e., 30 mm Hg. Capsular hydrostatic pressure (CHP) i.e., 20 mm Hg. Effective filtration pressure = GHP - (BCOP + CHP) EFP =70-30+20 EFP = 20
