- Tubular filtration, tubular reabsorption, and glomerular secretion
- Glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption, and tubular secretion (correct)
- Glomerular filtration, glomerular reabsorption, and glomerular secretion
What is the relation between GFR and changes in the filtration coefficient?
What is the relation between GFR and changes in the filtration coefficient?
- $GFR = \frac{K_f}{\Delta P}$
- $GFR = K_f \times \Delta P$ (correct)
- $GFR = K_f - \Delta P$
- $GFR = K_f + \Delta P$
