Which of the following best describes filtration? Movement from tubular fluid to peritubular capillary blood Movement from efferent arteriole blood to tubular fluid Movement from glomerular capillary blood to tubular fluid Movement from tubular fluid to glomerular capillary blood Movement from peritubular capillary blood to tubular fluid

Step 1
The glomerulus is a network of capillaries that filters blood to form urine. So, we can eliminate options A, B, and E because they do not involve the glomerulus. Option D, "Movement from tubular fluid to glomerular capillary blood," is also incorrect because it Show more…

The process of tubular reabsorption occurs in the renal corpuscles of the kidneys and involves an estimate of glomerular filtration rate indicating passage of tubular fluid to circulatory system, continuous passage of tubular fluid into peritubular capillary network and back again, active and passive transport of substances (e.g. glucose) and water from tubular fluid to the blood, and active transport of water, passive transport of glucose into peritubular capillary network.
