Question

Which of the following statements correctly explains why the glomerular capillaries in the kidney favor filtration along the entire length?

The net filtration pressure at the arterial and venous ends is the same because the osmotic pressure increases as the hydrostatic pressure decreases.

The high pressure in the system maintains a stable hydrostatic pressure along the entire length, and the filtration membranes prevent changes in the osmotic pressure.

They favor filtration only on the afferent arterial end, and the venous end favors reabsorption from the tubules.

Explanation / Answer

They favor filtration only on the afferent arterial end, and the venous end favors reabsorption from the tubules.

Blood entering into different arterioles pass into glomerular capillaries which favour filtration of blood. This blood enters efferent arterioles which divide into network of veins calls base rehta which favours reabsorbtion of substances from the tubules.
