    D) It has a higher concentration of crystalloid,

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Blood enters the glomerulus by the renal artery and carries with it plasma, blood colloids, glucose, amino acids, urea and other excretory compounds, and minerals. The process of ultra-filtration, then occurs between the glomerulus and the Bowman's capsule driven by hydrostatic pressure. The size of the pores on the walls of the glomerular capillaries and the Bowman's capsule allow the passage of all crystalloid components of the plasma into the capsule.
