The correct option is B

Equal


Glomerular filtrate is the same as plasma of blood, the only difference being that it does not contain blood cells. It contains proteins, glucose, creatinine, urea, uric acid and various ions such as Na+, K+, Cl-, and HCO-. The pressure generated is called as blood colloidal osmotic pressure.
