What are the factors that favour glomerular filtration ?

Open in App

Solution

Glomerular filtration occurs due to the pressure gradient in the glomerulus.
The factors that favour glomerular filtration are :
1. Increased blood volume and increased blood pressure.
2.Dilation of afferent arterioles going to glomerulus and constriction of efferent arterioles coming out of glomerulus.
3. Low hydrostatic pressure in Bowman's capsule.
