Summary Introduction

To determine: The force that opposes the glomerular filtration.

Introduction: Nephrons are the basic functional unit of kidneys. They are responsible for filtration of waste from the body. Each nephron consists of Bowman’s capsule containing glomerulus, proximal convoluted tubule, and distal convoluted tubule and collecting ducts.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The meaning of term net driving force.

Introduction: Human beings have a pair of the kidneys.
