The difference between continuous capillaries and fenestrated capillaries?

Continous capillaries contain tight junctions and are less "leaky " than fenestrated capillaries. They only allow the movement of water and small ions, whereas fenestrated capillaries contain many fenestrae or pores and allow many molecules with the exception of medium and large proteins to pass

Is fenestrated endothilium of capillaries part of filtration membrane?

Yes, the fenestrated endothelium of capillaries, along with the basement membrane and filtration slits in podocytes in the kidney, make up the filtration membrane responsible for the filtration of blood in the glomerulus. The fenestrations in the endothelium allow for the passage of small molecules and fluids.

The bowman's capsule contain a podocyte a vasa recta a fenestrated capillarry an efferent arteriole?

The Bowman's capsule is part of the kidney's nephron structure and contains a cluster of capillaries called a glomerulus that is surrounded by podocytes. The efferent arteriole exits the glomerulus, and the vasa recta are responsible for reabsorbing nutrients and water from the kidney tubules. Fenestrated capillaries in the glomerulus allow for efficient filtration of blood.
