The nonselective, passive process performed by the glomerulus that forms blood plasma without blood proteins is called filtration.
Glomerular filtration is the first step in making urine which includes the separation of the liquid part of the blood (plasma) from the blood cells. Glomerulus of the kidneys (a tuft of blood capillaries) filters excess fluid and waste products out of the blood into the urine collecting tubules of the kidney and thus eliminates it out of the body.

My guess:

I do not know the options to the blanks, but I'd say that the answer to the first one is "strongly linked". Think of a chromosome as a phylogenic chart → 2 species that are beside each other are strongly linked, if compared to 2 species 3 spots apart form each other. So, 2 genes that are close to each other are strongly linked.

I do not know the options to the blanks, but I'd say the answer to the second one is epistasis → which is the interaction between two different genes (different means they're not linked alleles).

Hope it helped,
