Filtrate flows due to a pressure difference between the blood in the glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule in the kidney. This pressure difference is created by the blood being under higher pressure than the Bowman's capsule, allowing fluid and small molecules to be filtered through the filtration membrane.
What else can I help you with?
What is the liquid that pass through the filtering funnel?
Filtrate. the ones trapped by the filter paper is called the residue
Where is the site of the filtrate formation?
Glomerulus is the filter that makes the filtrate.
How Collect the filtrate?
Filtrate is collected in a recipient placed under the funnel or filtration apparatus.
What is the filtrate in sulfur and potassium chloride mixture?
The word "filtrate' is not adequate for a mixture of S and KCl as solids.
Where is the glomerulus filtrate?
The glomerulus filtrate is located within the Bowman's capsule, which is the initial part of the kidney tubule where the glomerular filtrate is collected before being processed further in the renal tubules.
What causes filtrate to flow from the blood into the glomerulus?
Is increase in blood pressure in the capillaries
How does the bulk flow of filtrate into the capsule differ from diffusion?
The bulk flow of filtrate is a type of diffusion. Diffusion is a broad category of distribution of a substance within another substance. Diffusion can be specific or general in location and rate of flow.
An example of a countercurrent is what?
In the human body, the countercurrent exchange system in the nephrons of the kidney allows for efficient reabsorption of water and ions. Blood flow and filtrate flow travel in opposite directions, enhancing the exchange of solutes between the blood and the filtrate for optimal water conservation.
Why you cannot filtrate a solution?
A filtrate is already in solution.
Site of filtrate formation?
site filtrate formation
What is a filtrate in filtration?
A filtrate is the liquid that has passed through a filter.
What is the liquid that pass through the filtering funnel?
Filtrate. the ones trapped by the filter paper is called the residue
What happens to the filtrate concentration of water as it descends the tubules?
As the filtrate goes down the hypertonic interstitum of the renal medulla, water leaves the filtrate into the interstitum. As such, the water concentration in the filtrate decreases.
What causes electrons to flow when a a switch is turned on?
An electric field causes electrons to flow when a switch is turned on.
What causes electrons flow when a switch is turned on?
An electric field causes electrons to flow when a switch is turned on.
What causes electrons to flow when switch is turned on?
An electric field causes electrons to flow when a switch is turned on.
Where is the site of the filtrate formation?
Glomerulus is the filter that makes the filtrate.
