Solution

The correct option is C Glomerulus of uriniferous tubule
Glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure (GBHP) is the hydrostatic force or the mechanical pressure exerted on the fluid of plasma by the pressure gradient between the afferent and efferent arterioles delivering the blood to the glomerulus, which tends to push the plasma filtrate from the capillaries of the glomerulus into the capsular space.
