Watergate was a major political scandal that occurred in the United States in the 1970s, following a break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, D.C. in 1972 and President Richard Nixon's administration's attempted cover-up of its involvement.
The main driving force causing glomerular filtration is: A. osmotic pressure of plasma colloids promoting filtration.
The figure illustrates the forces that determine the filtration rate. The pressure in the glomerular capillaries, PGC, favors filtration. Opposing filtration is the osmotic pressure due to the blood proteins (ÏGC) and the hydrostatic pressure in Bowman's space (PBS).The net glomerular filtration pressure is the sum of these forces.he pressure in the glomerular capillaries (P GC) is high because of the resistance to flow provided by the __________. 2. A blockage in urine outflow (perhaps due to nephrolithiasis) causes an increase in the pressure in Bowman s space.
