    The net filtration pressure in the glomerulus of the kidney is

    A)                  70 mm Hg                          

    B)                  35 mm Hg

    C)                  25 mm Hg                          

    D)                  10 mm Hg

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Effective Filtration Pressure (EFP) or Net Filtration Pressure (NFP) is glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure minus the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood and capsular hydrostatic pressure. EFP/NFP = GBHP - (BCOP + CHP) = 60 - (32 + 18) = 10 mm Hg.
