Solution

The correct option is D All of the above
The basement membrane and podocytes are the major filtration barrier, passing particles depending on size and charge. All small particles (inorganic ions, glucose, amino acids, etc.) enter Bowman's space at exactly the same concentration as in blood plasma. Filtration barriers are non selectively permeable to small particles but not very permeable to larger particles, such as blood cells and plasma proteins.
