MCQ
When does glomerular filtration occurs in Bowman's capsule?
  • A
    When hydrostatic pressure of blood in the glomerulus is higher than capsular hydrostatic pressure $\&$ osmotic pressure
  • B
    When hydrostatic pressure of blood in the glomerulus is less than capsular hydrostatic pressure $\&$ osmotic pressure
  • When hydrostatic pressure of blood in the glomerulus is equal to capsular hydrostatic pressure $\&$ osmotic pressure
  • D
    When capsular hydrostatic pressure $\&$ osmotic pressure is higher than glomerular blood hydostatic pressure

Answer

Correct option: C.
When hydrostatic pressure of blood in the glomerulus is equal to capsular hydrostatic pressure $\&$ osmotic pressure
c
Glomerular filtration occurs in Bowman's capsule when hydrostatic pressure of blood in the glomerulus is $55\, mm\, Hg$ and net filtrate pressure is $10$ $mm\, Hg$
