Answer 1

The correct option is B (A) and (B) are true and the (B) is the correct explanation of the (A).

Haemodialysis is carried out in patients to remove excess urea in the blood; the condition is referred to as uremia. Uremia occurs due to the malfunctioning of kidneys. One of the main causes of uremia is glomerulonephritis which is the inflammation of glomeruli in the nephrons resulting in kidney failure.
