Answer:

Net filtration would decrease.

Explanation:

Net filtration pressure may be defined as the pressure present at the glomerulus. The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure existing at the kidney.

The net filtration pressure is affected by the osmotic pressure as well. The osmotic pressure always opposed the filtration. This might result in the increase in osmotic pressure. This will ultimately decrease the net filtration pressure as both oppose each other.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).

All of the following are considered abnormal findings in a dipstick urinalysis except __________________
Mars2501 [29]

In a dipstick urinalysis, red blood cells, glucose, and proteins all indicate abnormality but urea does not.

<h3>Abnormality urine</h3>

The components of normal urines include urea, chlorine, creatinine, and nutrients such as potassium, sodium, and other dissolved ions.

Proteins can also be present at a very minute level. However, the presence of red blood cells, glucose, and too much proteins is usually an indication of abnormality with an underlining health problem.
