Solution

The correct option is B Glomerular filtration
Low blood pressure causes an inadequate flow of blood to the body's organs including the kidneys. Due to the lower blood flow rate, the glomerulus is able to filter less amount of urine. So, the glomerular filtration rate and the amount of urine formation is lower. So, the correct option is 'Glomerular filtration'.
