Solution

The correct option is C Secretion
Glomerular filtration is occurring due to the pressure gradient in the glomerulus. Increased blood volume and increased blood pressure will increase GFR. Hypotension is low blood pressure, especially in the arteries of the systemic circulation and hence this will disturb the function of kidneys and reduces glomerular filtration.
