Why do water and small molecules move from the glomerulus into the filtrate?Multiple Choicediffusion down the concentration gradientglomerular blood pressureactive transportsecretiondiffusion against the concentration gradient

What forces filtration at the glomerular capsule?Multiple choice question.The abundance of surface areaAn increase in glomerular blood pressureThe pH difference across the filtration membraneThe absence of a brush boarder

After filtrate flows from the distal convoluted tubules, it flows into the .
