8. Which of the following is incorrect about ultrafiltration?
a) Podocytes are arranged in intricate manner so as to leave minute space called filtration
slits and slit pore, filtration occurs finely through these pores.
b) Filtration is so fine that almost all the constituent of blood except protein pass onto the
lumen of Bowman’s capsule.
c) Filtrated fluid is isotonic to blood plasma.
d) JGA controls the filtration rate of ultrafiltration.
Explanation: "Filtration is so fine that almost all the constituent of blood except protein pass onto the lumen of Bowman’s capsule". This is incorrect about ultrafiltration.
