A) Perfusion pressure in the glomerular capillaries
B) Oncotic pressure in the glomerular capillaries
C) Vascular resistance in the glomerular arterioles
D) Hydrostatic pressure in the Bowman capsule

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The filtration of the plasma per unit of time is known as the GFR,which is directly related to the perfusion pressure of the glomerular capillaries.
