The chief force pushing water and solutes out of the blood across the filtration membrane is A) the ionic electrochemical gradient B) protein-regulated diffusion C) glomerular hydrostatic pressure D) the size of the pores in the basement membrane of the capillaries

C) option is correct

Explanation:

Glomerular filtration is the process which kidneys uses to filter excess fluid and waste products out of the blood into the urine collecting tubules of the kidney, so that they may be eliminated from the bodyThe rate at which kidneys filter blood is called the glomerular filtration rateThe main driving force for the filtering process, or outward pressure is the blood pressure as it enters the glomerulus, this is counteracted to some extent by inward pressure due to the hydrostatic pressure of the fluid within the urinary space, and the pressure generated by the proteins left in the capillaries that tend to pull water back into the circulatory system (colloidal osmotic pressure)The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure
