Solution

The correct option is D C6H12O6
The diameter of the afferent arteriole is greater than the diameter of the efferent arteriole. The pressure of the blood inside the glomerulus is increased due to the difference in diameter of the incoming and out-going arterioles. This increased blood pressure helps to force the following components of the blood out of the glomerular capillaries: most of the water; most or all of the salts; most or all of the glucose; most or all of the urea. The glucose filtered in the glomerular filtrate is reabsorbed by the glucose transporter. Almost all glucose is reabsorbed from the glomerular filtrate, as there is no glucose in the urine.
