Question
Glomerular hydrostatic pressure is present in
Open in App
Solution
Glomerular hydrostatic pressure
The difference in sizes of the afferent and efferent arterioles, as well as the capillaries, creates pressure in the capillaries of glomerulus known as glomerular hydrostatic pressure. It equals to 55 mm Hg.
This difference in pressure helps in ultrafiltration of blood passing through glomerulus.
Hence, the glomerular hydrostatic pressure is created in the glomerulus of urinary tubule.
Final answer
(B) Glomerulus of urinary tubule
