Q. Layers between the glomerular and Bowman’s capsule through which the filtration takes place are I. endothelium of the glomerular blood vessel II. middle lamella III. basement membrane between the endothelium of glomerular blood vessels and epithelium of the Bowman’s capsule IV. epithelium of the Bowman’s capsule
A) I, II and III
B) II, III and IV
C) I, III and IV
D) I, II and IV
Explanation
I, III and IV. Glomerular capillary blood pressure causes the filtration of the blood through three layers, i.e., (i) The endothelium of the glomerular blood vessels (ii) Epithelium of Bowman’s capsule (iii) Basement membrane between these two layers The epithelium of the Bowman’s capsule called podocytes are arranged in an intricate manner so as to leave some minute spaces called podocytes
