The factor favoring filtrate formation at the glomerulus is the ____________.
salantis [7]

Answer:

The factor favoring filtrate formation at the glomerulus is the <u>glomerular hydrostatic pressure.</u>

Explanation:

glomerular hydrostatic pressure is the pressure of the blood in the glomerular capillaries.

The pressure generated by the fluid against a surface is called the Hydrostatic pressure . The blood in glomerulus generates the glomerular hydrostatic pressure , that forces the fluid out of glomerulus into the glomerular capsule .  

Fluid in glomerular capsule generates pressure that pushes the fluid out of glomerular capsule back into the glomerulus , opposing glomerular hydrostatic pressure . this is called the capsular hydrostatic pressure .

The fluid exerts pressure in the opposite direction , and hence , the net movement of the fluid will be in the direction of lower pressure .
