Question

what is glomerular ultra filtration?

Answer 1

Ultrafiltration is the first of three processes by which metabolic wastes are separated from the blood and urine is formed

It is the non-specific filtration of the blood under high pressure and occurs in the Bowman’s capsule of the nephron

Answer 2

The high hydrostatic pressure forces small molecules such as water, glucose, amino acids, sodium chloride and urea through the filter, from the blood in the glomerular capsule across the basement membrane of the Bowman's capsule and into the nephron. This process is called ultrafiltration
