Substances travel from the glomerulus into Bowman capsule by the process of:
A) diffusion.
B) active transport.
C) filtration.
D) osmosis.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Filtration is the process by which substances move from the glomerulus to Bowman capsule. This occurs due to the pressure gradient that is established by the hydrostatic pressure of blood within the glomerular capillaries. The other options, diffusion, active transport, and osmosis, are not primarily responsible for this movement of substances from the glomerulus to Bowman capsule.
