Solution

The correct option is B
Plasma and not proteins

Filtration of blood is the first step of urine formation. The filtration is carried out in the glomerulus and is called the glomerular filtration. As the blood passes through the epithelial cells of the Bowman’s capsule, it allows the constituents of the plasma, except the proteins, to filter.
