Solution

The correct option is A Plasma proteins
Blood that passes through the glomerulus undergoes ultra filtration due to which all the components of blood, except plasma protein, pass into the Bowman's capsule. Plasma proteins have a higher molecular weight and is thus inhibited by the basement membrane of the glomerular capillaries from being filtered out.
