Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When the filtration membrane is damaged, larger molecules such as proteins, which are normally retained in the plasma, can leak into Bowman's space. This increases the colloid osmotic pressure in Bowman's space because the concentration of these proteins becomes higher there.
