Can you describe three pressures operating at the filtration membrane and explain how each influences net filtration pressure?

The chief force is:
1. Glomerular hydrostatic pressure-- (HPg)
Then, there are two opposing forces:
2. Colloid osmotic pressure of glomerular blood-- (OPg)
3. Capsular hydrostatic pressure -- (HPc)
They influence Net Filtration Pressure in the following manner:
NFP= HPg - (OPg+HPc)

Describe the stages of how filtration occur in the nephron?
In the glomerulus. Note this is not filtration of urine, it is the filtration of blood leading to the production of urine as a waste product.
Define glomerular filtration rate Name and describe the pressures which are effective at the glomerulus under normal conditions and result in glomerular filtration?
Glomerular filtration is a passive process in which hydrostatic pressure forces fluids and solutes through a membraneThe glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is directly proportional to the net filtration pressure and is about 125 ml/min (180 L/day).The glomeruli function as filters. High glomerular blood pressure (55 mm Hg) occurs because the glomeruli are fed and drained by arterioles, and the afferent arterioles are larger in diameter than the efferent arterioles.

What is meant by the terms decantation and filtration?
The larger and heavier solid particles settle down leaving the clear liquid above it. ... At the same time, during decantation, there is a chance of the particles mixing back in the liquid. The filtration technique can be used to overcome this as well. Thus, filtration is better than sedimentation and decantation.
