E) None of the choices are correct.
Glomerular Capillary Pressure
The pressure within the capillaries of the glomeruli in the kidneys, essential for the filtration of blood to form urine.
Filtration Membrane
A biological or synthetic membrane that acts as a barrier to separate particles in a fluid, used in both biological systems and industrial processes.
