Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The passage of proteins into Bowman's capsule is prevented by the combined effect of the size of the capillary pores, the size of the filtration slits in the podocytes, and the size of the proteins themselves. These structures act as a filtration barrier, ensuring that large molecules like proteins do not pass into the filtrate.
