Answer 1

The correct option is D

Dialysis is the process of removing nitrogenous waste products from the blood using an artificial kidney.

Dialysing fluid has the same osmotic pressure as blood, except that it is devoid of nitrogenous wastes.

The waste products from the blood pass into dialyzing fluid by diffusion.

Normally, in a healthy adult, the initial filtrate in the kidneys is about 180L daily.
